Artfully set into the Claremont Hills upslope, this refined 2008 Craftsman style home features a rare combination of bay and city vistas and lush, easily accessible gardens. Come home to a true retreat. All three floors offer sweeping views over treetops and rooftops of the cities, bridges, hills and waters of San Francisco Bay. Anchored by a central fireplace, the broad, open living and dining rooms share views west and south, exceptional light and flow, and a charming sunset balcony. Off the versatile sitting room and handsome chef’s kitchen, wide doors lead to the intimate rear patio, upper lawn and leafy upper terrace. Upstairs are the serene master retreat, with glorious views and sumptuous bathroom, two more bedrooms and a hall bathroom. Downstairs, a fourth bedroom suite invites TV, office, guests or au pair lair. Enjoy extraordinary views and landscape, elegant architecture, easy indoor-outdoor flow, and convenient access to the freeways, BART, Elmwood, Rockridge, and Cal.
