Meticulous Transformation Across from Colby Park
Situated within the charming enclave of Rockridge’s Colby Park, a home rises with the kind of confidence only a meticulous transformation can inspire. Tucked along a street that embraces the park’s lush greenery, the home has an air of belonging as if it were woven into the very fabric of the community. Originally built in 1916, an extensive permitted renovation has introduced bespoke custom features and stylish finishes, enhancing the exquisite details that reflect its history. Spanning three levels, the home features three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, offering a stylish pied-à-terre that connects wonderfully with the surrounding neighborhood.
The approach begins with an expansive front lawn, setting the stage for the grandeur that lies beyond. The entrance is marked by a stately formal foyer, where one is immediately greeted by a sense of symmetry and balance. To the left, an elegant living room unfolds, defined by its designer tile surround fireplace and coved ceiling that lend both architectural interest and a nod to timeless craftsmanship. To the right, the space transitions into a striking kitchen and dining area, where beam ceilings and french doors leading to the garden patio below create a space that is both functional and breathtaking.
Directly behind the entry, a discreet half bath offers convenience, while the grand staircase commands attention, rising as a sculptural element in its own right. Ascending to the upper level, the primary bedroom emerges as a luxurious retreat. Here, a walk-in closet is seamlessly integrated into the room, leading to a spa-inspired bathroom, where every detail has been considered to create an atmosphere of relaxation and indulgence. The upper level also houses two additional bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed, along with a full bathroom that combines modern amenities with a sense of understated luxury. Descending to the lowest level, the home reveals a family room that is both cozy and inviting, with wood accents that infuse warmth and character into the space. This area is ideal for casual gatherings or intimate movie nights and offers additional storage beneath the staircase, maximizing functionality without compromising on style.
Outside, the fully fenced front yard is not merely a border but a space to breathe, to enjoy, to entertain. The back garden, partially paved with the opposite end offering an additional grass play area, offers a perfect opportunity for al fresco dining with built-in bench seating. A small deck lends access to the kitchen, making it effortlessly simple to serve guests. Connected to the back garden is the detached one-car garage, ideal for off-loading groceries or for future conversion to an office or guest room. Additional off-street parking from the driveway completes the home.
Situated in the heart of Rockridge, near the charming shops and fine dining of Elmwood and College Ave, this residence offers effortless access to San Francisco, perfectly blending luxury and convenience.
