In 2003, the owners re-imagined the 1925 bungalow, lifting the structure to build an entirely new ground floor complete with a new foundation, updated systems, arched doorways, efficient Andersen windows and soaring 9-foot ceilings. The result: 2619sf of space with the airy, elevated feel of a Mediterranean villa, modern comforts, and quality that endures. The home's artistry begins at the covered porch, where you're greeted by a magnificent front door, hand-crafted from reclaimed Oakland Acacia wood by renowned Zen woodworker Paul Discoe. A custom black iron railing lines the staircase, leading to a primary suite that spans the entire west side of the upper level. Afternoon light bathes this retreat overlooking a calming olive tree. Work in the bright office nook and enjoy an en-suite bath with a vintage clawfoot tub. Th
