This indoor-outdoor haven, renovated and expanded with appreciation for its Craftsman roots, integrates high-caliber components and a fortified infrastructure. Transformed over time, it features extraordinary surfaces, fixtures, appliances, and well-configured spaces throughout its four-bedroom, two-bath layout. A resort-like master suite indulges in a widely windowed outlook, opening to the outdoor hardscape and luxuriantly landscaped garden. Amid this urban oasis, multi-level entertaining terraces integrate a complete kitchen station, dining area, and firepit lounge as an organic extension of the home outlined by a natural privacy screen.The home's Craftsman attributes establish an informal yet cultured aesthetic, original elements blending with stylistically fitting refurbishments. Evident upon entry, they include hardwood flooring, the living room's tile-surround fireplace, upgraded to gas, flanked by built-in bookshelves and double-hung windows cased in wide trim. Fully remodeled but emblematic of period style, the kitchen shines. On a paver-stone terrace spanning the length of the home, a stacked-stone-encased kitchen integrates everything for refrigerating, preparing and serving al fresco. And the elevated terrace with custom gas firepit encourages lingering after dark, surrounded by a lighting-accentuated landscape.A deck from the fireplace-endowed master suite overlooks and connects to the outdoor living space. Inside, the radiant and richly appointed master bathroom includes a deep soaking tub set in an alcove of ceiling-height windows, a separate water closet, shower with floor-to-ceiling limestone, and double-sink vanity of handsome wenge topped by vessel sinks and glass. Three remaining bedrooms are served by a full bathroom also appointed with limestone and wenge. Additional storage is plentiful and includes an attached garage also containing built-ins plus workshop, and lower-level storage, including a wine room.
