Perched high above the valley, this is a home with a rare sense of perspective. Step through the red front door and into a natural habitat viewing sanctuary—where the house, the garden, and the landscape beyond seem to exist in one continuous frame AND the expansive view stretches across the valley toward the Bay and a distant horizon. The wow factor begins the moment you enter this home, the living and dining area showcases floor-to-ceiling windows, turning the valley beyond into living artwork. Open-beamed ceilings and a statement fireplace give the room the unmistakable character of a fabulous mid-century home, while the generous windows make the landscape the star. This is a home designed for looking outward—for noticing the weather rolling through, the changing light, the fog settling into the valley, and the colors shifting as afternoon becomes evening. Open the doors and the experience continues outside. A level patio flows naturally from the living space and extends to a deck perched over the hillside complete with a hot tub and then there is the garden! From the level patio, the backyard is a journey with nature as an active participant: terraced gardens of vegetables and fruit trees, hawks soaring and hummingbirds hovering. Inside, the house is equally appealing in its own distinctly mid-century way. The layout is warm, practical and made for gathering, with the living spaces naturally connected to the outdoors while three bedrooms offer privacy and quiet. A full hallway bath serves the bedrooms, while the primary bedroom has its own ensuite. There is an office nook tucked just off the kitchen—perfect for a laptop, a little paperwork, or a creative project—and a two-car garage with a worktable and built-in storage carpentry that will make an organizer, hobbyist or hands-on homeowner very happy. But the heart of this property is the relationship between house and landscape. This isn't simply a home with a nice backyard or a house with a view. It’s a true mid-century house with mid-century values of bringing the outside in. Set on a quiet dead-end street, this special home offers a sense of retreat without being removed from the world: commutes, groceries, coffee, trails, restaurants. It is a perfect place for anyone who appreciates a house with personality, a garden with life, and a view that asks you to slow down and look a little farther; down across the valley, beyond the Bay, and out to the hazy horizon where the possibilities, seem endless.
