Description: This architecturally significant 1908 “double-house” celebrates the Craftsman style with it's exquisite artisanship and seamless connection with the out-of-doors. Originally designed by renowned Stanford architects John Bakewell, Jr. and Arthur Brown, Jr. – protégés of Bernard Maybeck – the home’s light-filled interiors present an updated interpretation of the classic style made popular by Frank Lloyd Wright. The welcoming shingled exterior opens to richly finished interiors that are detailed with hallmark design elements such as oak and Douglas fir flooring, beadboard wainscot paneling, pocket sliding doors, leaded glass windows, and practical built-ins. At the same time, thoughtfully updated amenities provide completely modern comfort while preserving the home’s period charm and architectural integrity. A sunroom off the foyer offers a superb spot for tranquil relaxation, while the formal living and dining rooms with fireplaces allow for extravagant entertaining possibilities. All of this is catered by a fully remodeled kitchen with top-quality appliances. The home’s 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms are arranged on the upper level, highlighted by a generously sized master bedroom with a dedicated sitting salon and private bathroom. Three additional bedrooms, a hallway bath, and a main-level powder room round out the accommodations. All of this is augmented by a spacious loft space, a separate 1-bedroom, 1/2 bath studio, plus a 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit above the detached 2-car garage. With its verdant grounds of just under a quarter of an acre, this wonderful property enjoys a lush garden setting in a quiet neighborhood while remaining conveniently close to major commute routes and upscale amenities.
