Stunning Old World craftsmanship meets a polished, modern aesthetic in the San Rafael Hills. Sited serenely above the street, this impeccably updated and very private 1947 Traditional offers peace, calm and quiet. Solid walnut hardwood floors create luxury underfoot. A carved marble fireplace anchors the spacious living room. The sun splashed dining room features a custom made wrought iron chandelier and doors to the outside patio. The kitchen has been reimagined with handsome custom cabinetry, topped with beautiful stone counters, top of the line stainless appliances and a sunny breakfast nook. The light filled family room's ceiling soars giving the room a lofty feel. French doors lead to a central courtyard offering yet another first floor gathering spot. Built in bookcases in the living room flank a discrete hallway connecting two ample main floor bedrooms. The second floor of the home is a luxurious master suite. The large, custom fitted walk in closet leads to a bright master bath. A vaulted bonus space offers flexibility as a den, a nursery, a home gym or office. The attached garage is accessed directly from the house. This property is on a rare street to street lot, and backs up to a private lane that offers access to the garage and extra parking.
