Lovely Mid-Century home near SF, SFO, & Peninsula

Walk through the enclosed atrium sporting a custom mural and stunning red maple in this home dating back to 1956. The spacious house boasts mid-century furniture and art with a wall of glass overlooking the deck with a backdrop of fruit trees. Spacious 2 bedrooms & den with TV converts to a sofa bed. You also have a private office if you're working from home, right off the atrium. Enjoy a lovely dinner in back garden on a cool summer night. Though we love children, our home is not childproof, and we prefer not to host children under 12 years of age, thank you for understanding. This home was built in 1956 by Joseph Eichler and completely remodeled in 2017 with the goal of staying true to its original Mid-Century design while updating the house for modern living. It features a collection of beautiful Mid-Century furniture and art made by the owner and friends. Guests enter through an enclosed atrium that sports a custom mural and stunning red maple. The back yard features a large dining area with a backdrop of fruit tree and a spacious deck overlooking thousands of acres of open space and the Coastal Range. This home has two bedrooms with queen size beds and one bedroom with a full size sofa-bed. The master bedroom has an en suite bathroom with walk-in shower, the other two rooms share a bathroom with a deep tub. There is a spacious, well lit office for your use. One of the best features of this home is it's great room with a wood-burning fireplace, dining room, and kitchen--perfect for entertaining a small group. The backyard features an 8 person outdoor dining table and 6 burner BBQ for your use, as well a large outdoor sofa surrounding a fire pit. The front atrium is another well lit modern get away where you can to sit back and enjoy nature and art. Guests will have access to the entire property including the house and gardens. There is a washer and drier for guest use in the garage. I have a co-host who will be there for you 24/7. The house is in the Highlands neighborhood, which was developed by Joseph Eichler in the mid-1950s. The community center across the street from the property features a great playground for children.
