Capturing the essence of Eichler's creative vision, simplicity of design and harmony with nature, this home features spacious, flexible light-filled living areas with high exposed beam ceilings and vast expanses of glass that frame views of the private garden setting. Approach the home through an enclosed courtyard that serves to welcome visitors and provides a quiet area for outdoor enjoyment. The kitchen offers generous workspace and storage, and opens to an inviting patio rimmed by lush greenery. Recent improvements include paint, re-oiling of mahogany paneling, new carpet and new wood floors. The peaceful garden surrounding the home, designed and cultivated by the long-term owner, displays a diverse and colorful array of foliage and blossoms year-round and serves as a peaceful retreat. Near outstanding public schools, Mitchell Park & Library, and easy access to major Silicon Valley employers. Current owner's Eichler Swim & Tennis Clubs membership is transferrable to new owner.
