This stylish 2,215-square-foot home creates a warm and architecturally interesting ambiance with wood accents, beam and plank ceilings, custom stained glass windows, elegant archways and wide open welcoming spaces. Wide-plank hardwood floors, new sisal and designer lighting add stylish contemporary appeal. A gracious foyer welcomes you into the bright living room, where beamed ceilings and a fireplace with a delightful delightful new surround invite you to relax and unwind. Sunny sliding glass doors lead to the expansive deck that stretches around a majestic bay laurel and toward the kitchen and dining area for seamless indoor-outdoor enjoyment surrounded by hillside and redwood vistas.

Above the living room, a lovely loft area boasts impeccable light, a shed ceiling and its own private roof deck. A bright hallway with clerestory windows and a wide coat closet invites you into the spacious dining area. The adjacent updated kitchen features abundant cabinetry with new hardware, bleached butcher block counters, subway tile backsplashes, floating shelves and full-size appliances, including a dishwasher, refrigerator and a gas range with a new hood.

Sleep soundly in the glorious main-floor owner's suite, where vaulted ceilings, walls of windows and stained glass create a tranquil atmosphere. Enjoy a comfy seating nook and a dressing area with excellent closet space and a double vanity, plus a refreshed en suite bathroom with a frameless glass shower and all-new tile. Two more ultra-private bedrooms are placed down separate staircases on the lower level. In the west wing, you'll find a separate entrance, a treetop bedroom with a roomy closet, plus an oversized laundry room with a side-by-side washer-dryer and a large sink area with bathroom addition potential.
