About this home
Lovers of mid-century style will appreciate this circa 1960 home, completely transformed circa 2018 with a modern open-concept design. Signature Eichler elements include vaulted, beamed and paneled ceilings, walls of floor-to-ceiling glass, and exceptional indoor/outdoor living. Wide plank white oak floors extend throughout, complemented by a crisp white palette and beautiful natural light. A spacious living room is wrapped in glass and anchored by a floor-to-ceiling white brick gas fireplace, and the open dining room has sliding doors to the front terrace. The skylit designer kitchen features quartz finishes, a large island with seating, and premium appliances. 4 bedrooms and 2 beautifully remodeled luxe baths include a primary suite with custom walk-in closet. Ensconced in lush, mature foliage on an extra-large, raised corner lot, this serene home enjoys exceptional privacy and East Bay hill views from the expansive front terrace beneath a towering Pacific Madrone. Finished 2-car garage. Highlands Elementary and buses to Aragon High School just up the street, plus an outstanding nearby recreation center that includes a pool, clubhouse, gym, tennis/pickleball courts, and playground.
San Mateo Highlands, located between Crystal Springs Road and Skyline Boulevard, is a hillside and residential Highlands neighborhood with winding streets and broad bay-and-ridge views. The neighborhood reads as mid-century California, with low-slung ranch homes, split-levels, and carports set into oak-studded slopes. The character concentrates around the Crystal Springs Shopping Center on Crystal Springs Road, where a small cluster of everyday storefronts and parking-lot bustle sets the local rhythm. Community pillars include Highlands Recreation District (HRD), the Highlands Community Clubhouse, and the Highlands Park tennis courts. Trailheads and open space frame daily routines, with quick transitions from backyards to ridgelines and reservoir scenery.
