Designer Remodel of Charismatic Luxury...

Define your “center of the universe,” walking distance to two exciting downtowns! Centrally located in between the vibrant restaurant scenes of San Mateo and Burlingame, the Eastern Addition is a time-honored neighborhood of storybook homes. Revival architecture of the 1910s to 1930s paints a picture of timeless ambiance, dotted with some of the most classic homes in the area.

Built in 1931, this Spanish Colonial jewel preserves all of its integrity while benefiting from a sleek new designer remodel. Bespoke luxuries cascade throughout a multi-level floorplan of 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, plus large downstairs media room. The rarity of 4 bedrooms includes three bedrooms upstairs together on one level, plus a main level guest retreat or quintessential home office opening to the garden. Premium upgrades include espresso hardwood flooring, a brand new Miele/Bosch-equipped kitchen, Marvin double pane windows and French doors, designer stone-finished bathrooms, and much more.

Stepping into the home, a stunning entrance turret is a destination unto itself—graced by 13 ft. ceilings and curving Art Deco stairwell…an impressive nod to the Hollywood Hills! Beyond this cinematic prelude, large rooms emerge with sophisticated details. The living room ceilings rise to nearly 10 ft. above a dramatic front picture window. Note the newly installed espresso wood flooring and sculptural light sconces that set a tone of modern transitional elegance. An arched doorway accents the formal dining room, which welcomes a circular table for up-to-the-minute aesthetic and flow. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen has just been completely renovated with new cabinetry, wood flooring, quartzite countertops, and appliances by Miele and Bosch. From this point in the home, you can escape to either the nearby Office/4th bedroom, or the expanded dimension of the lower level media room. Tucked just behind the kitchen, the Office/4th Bedroom (with nearby half-bath) creates effortless work-at-home environs, even with French doors that extend your Zoom sessions out to the rear gardens. A few steps down from the kitchen, the lower level media room is ideal overflow space for kids’ playroom (with yard access), family room, gym, or additional office.

Ascending via the chic European staircase, the upper level features 3 bedrooms and 2 remodeled bathrooms. The master suite enjoys its own north wing complete with balcony, white marble bathroom, and custom wardrobes. Two other bedrooms share a stone-finished central bathroom. You will note the richness of the newly updated hardwood flooring and deep baseboards that unify with two levels of the the floorplan. All updated Marvin double pane windows and French doors are another high-end appointment.

Outdoors, the landscaping is newly refreshed front and rear. The maturity of the gardens adds to the privacy. Don’t miss the artistic rear staircase: accented in Andalusian-style colorful tiles, the true spirit of the Spanish Colonial Revival era! Sunny patios are ready for your barbecue and fire pit. Grassy lawns and a kids’ play zone add to the park-like bliss. Whether you are a Peninsula native or new to the Bay Area, this location is your best-kept secret…sure to resonate for its walk-centric character, unbeatable access to town, and commute ease. Upscale downtown Burlingame is only 0.7 miles away, or about a 15 minute walk. Trending downtown San Mateo is about a mile away boasting high-end restaurants, diverse markets, coffee houses, bars, gyms, and theater. The world at your doorstep…
