Step through the gate of this magnificent property and enter your own serene garden retreat. Set on a very private lot this spacious, one-level, mid-century modern home is designed to accentuate the surrounding gardens and breathtaking views. The �U� shaped floor-plan wraps around a flagstone patio courtyard for seamless indoor/outdoor living and entertaining. The home boasts a spacious living room with a fireplace, formal dining room with built-ins, eat-in kitchen with ample storage, light-filled family room, 4 bedrooms, including a luxurious master suite, 3 bathrooms, and a two-car garage. Close to the main house is a 2 bedroom, 1 path guest house with its own carport. Other amenities surrounding the main house include a swimming pool with pool house, a sauna cabin, a workshop, a trellised plant propagation area, and an underground bunker now used as a wine cellar! The heart of the estate is perhaps the enchanting and stunningly extensive Japanese inspired main garden. Against the backdrop of the Bay, many mature specimen trees, ornamental shrubs, and perennial species have been lovingly tended for decades forming a magical landscape framed by huge ornamental rocks, artificial streams, ponds, and artfully placed paths and steps. All of this is located in a private yet accessible location near Montclair Village with its charming shops and cafes, Montera Middle School, and Joaquin Miller Elementary School. It is convenient to freeways and commute options. Set down a long, gated driveway and bordered by Joaquin Miller Park, the property feels like a true escape from the world!
