Nestled between Piedmont and Montclair, this home rests on a quiet hillside street. Architectural engineers Bob and Mary Hart built the home as their own. It offers 3 bedrooms and 2½ bathrooms and intimate seating areas amidst nature. From a wood deck and brick patio, enter past lemon trees to a foyer that leads on every side to the home’s living areas. To the right is the spacious dining room, with windows on 3 sides. To the left is the 378 sq ft living room, with floor-to-ceiling window views on 3 sides, and a wood-burning fireplace (with brick surround). On the many warm and sunny days, enjoy idyllic peace on the deck just a step through sliders. The newly remodeled kitchen offers quartz counters and custom cabinetry. Completing the floor is a spacious office with direct access to a sunny deck and the rear garden. The bedrooms are upstairs. The primary suite features a remodeled en-suite bath, walk-in closet, and views on two sides. Two other upstairs bedrooms share a bath, also recently renovated. The home’s striking architectural feature is the balcony looking down from the second floor to the living room below. Parking is easy in the 2-car garage and driveway, as well as the motor court. The home has quick access to the 13 freeway and from there to San Francisco.
