Brown Shingle Contemporary in Private Paradise

Sophisticated 3-bedroom, 2-bath brown shingle contemporary with stunning gardens. This gorgeous custom home was built in 1984 by the current owners with wide redwood eaves and cedar shingle cladding inspired by the First Bay Tradition homes. In a rustic upslope setting, it offers a private paradise of luxuriously airy interior spaces and artistic landscape design of native and drought resistant plants, flowering terraced gardens, pathways with inlaid mosaic designs, trees, patios, shady and sunny seating areas, park views, and even a fish pond.

Totally fenced, the property’s entrance is graced by a beautiful wrought-iron gate and a very handsome doorway. The elegant public areas are well-illuminated by the generous use of tall arched windows, skylights, and a row of clerestory windows, as well as double French doors and sliding glass doors opening to the gardens. High open-beamed wood ceilings, plus finely crafted built-in furniture and a variety of wood and bamboo flooring create a sense of serenity, solidity, and well-being throughout. The roomy kitchen is a lovely combination of high-end appliances, including a Viking range island, unusually attractive Brazilian granite counters, solid oak custom cabinetry, and wainscotting, plus a large greenhouse window for growing plants indoors. There is a gracious living room perfect for entertaining that opens to a large view deck, and an inviting, spacious dining room.

The primary bedroom has its own view deck, a giant cedar closet, and a spa-like bathroom with stunning countertops made of a unique French granite, cherry wood cabinetry and a marvelous mosaic insert done by the artist owner. A second artistically-designed bath is shared by the second and third bedroom.

The lower level has a large room with a worktable and many cabinets, perfect for a playroom or office. There are tons of storage spaces throughout the home, including in the laundry room, with built-in shelving and closet, and there is even more storage in the oversized 2-car garage.

This one-of-a-kind beautiful property is on a tranquil street just a few minutes to the El Cerrito del Norte BART station, shops, grocery stores, fine restaurants, I-80, and just feet to Alvarado Park and the miles of hiking and biking trails of Wildcat Canyon Park.
