Remarks

Perched at the end of a cul-de-sac on over half an acre, this San Mateo Hills home offers breathtaking views of the Bay, San Francisco skyline and western hills. Upstairs, the primary suite features an updated bath and a private deck shared with an adjacent bedroom both with stunning views. A third bedroom and updated hall bath complete the level. The lower level is designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The living room, with a wood-burning fireplace, opens to a patio with hillside views. The eat-in kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, an updated tile floor, a pass-through to the dining room, and access to a private patio. Sliding doors from the dining room lead to the backyard, where the hillside landscaping features young fruit trees. The backyard patio and side garden offer a raised garden bed, and a serene canyon backdrop. A concept rendering illustrates how adding a deck over the hillside could beautifully expand the entertainment space and enhance the sweeping views. A versatile family room has a separate side entrance. Additional features include an interior laundry area, ample storage, and a two-car garage. Ideally located near shopping, dining, and major highways, this move-in-ready home offers privacy, convenience, and incredible vistas.
