Built in 1927

This gracious Alameda Ridge home has all the style and character of the 1920's, modeled after the glamour of the Hollywood era. California/Mediterranean style features arched doorways, wrought-iron railings, Batchelder art-tile fireplace surround, leaded windows and hard stucco exterior. Four bedrooms comprise the second level, the smallest has built-ins that make it ideal for an office or nursery; another bedroom is big enough to be a bunkroom! And the third, also quite spacious, has a striking view of Irvington neighborhood treetops and glittering lights of downtown as does every southwest-facing window throughout. The primary bedroom has the same glorious view as well as its own gas fireplace. The primary bath has separate shower and tub plus a romantic little fountain and dimmable lights for a soothing soak after a long day. Besides many functional upgrades including most windows, second including tile pavers in the kitchen and throughout the lower level. There's even a wisp of Art Deco. Lower level has a spacious family room with gas fireplace and built-ins, is plumbed for a kitchenette and has fantastic storage space. Fifth bedroom is a suite for guests or office. Be careful who you host though - it's adjacent to the wine cellar! Pull up the exterior photos to preview special gardens designed by Doug Macy in the '90s. Plantings feature flowering cherries, a big fig, wild roses, day lilies, hydrangeas. There's a private walled garden with two fountains and colorful flower pots. There's even a dedicated "potager" off the kitchen for herbs. The lower (south) side of the lot extends to NE 38th and is planted - though somewhat wild - with flowering trees including pink dogwoods. Above the treetops, there's a vast view of the Irvington neighborhood below and sparkling downtown lights in the distance. [Home Energy Score = 1.
