This magnificent College Heights Contemporary marries elevated design and prime location. Whether you are seeking a soothing respite or the ideal home to entertain in all seasons, this architectural gem has it all. The first floor features a circular floor plan and wrap-around deck for easy living. You will find a stylish kitchen with plentiful cabinetry, a dining area with a built-in wet bar, built-in book cases, and an inviting living room. Like the rest of the house, the expansive sunroom, which features in-floor radiant heat, lets the outside in through wrap-around sliding-glass doors and skylights. Completing the main level is a foyer, generously sized powder room, expansive laundry/mudroom, and two-bay garage. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite has an ample walk-in closet, built-in storage, and a bathroom featuring a heated floor, tiled shower, double-sink, and separate WC. An office of your dreams is nestled in the treetops and drenched in natural light. Upstairs also sports two additional bedrooms, one with cathedral ceilings and the other with its own spacious balcony. Completing the second floor is another full bath with a separate water closet and walk-in shower suite that also includes a huge soaking tub. Outside living areas surround the entire house. The calming wooded-views will make you wonder if you really are just a short walk from campus. Across the street, a path leads directly to Sunset Park with its plentiful gathering spaces and hiking paths and the Hartley Wood wildflower trails. Campus, the Stadium, downtown, North Atherton shopping, and bike trails are all within easy reach.
