Whoever said “the best views of San Francisco are from Oakland” could have had this home in mind. Look west, over SF Bay, to see The City, Golden Gate Bridge, Bay Bridge, Angel Island, and other landmarks. The home is water- and energy- efficient: A cistern cuts water bills in half, and the solar system brings energy bills close to zero and supplies power even in a multiday blackout. Entering the home, a dramatic hall leads to the dining room and sunken living room, under a beamed ceiling. The oversized fireplace is headed by an artistic mantle. The nearby kitchen – equipped with elite appliances and wide granite counters – has spectacular views and adjoins a breakfast nook and family room. Work is easy from the spacious office (which could be reconfigured as an extra bedroom) on the main level. A spiral staircase leads up to 3 of the bedrooms. The principal suite, under a beamed ceiling, offers hillside views and two walk-in closets. The principal bathroom has a shower that enjoys views of SF and the Bay. The 2 other upstairs bedrooms each command their own gorgeous views. On the lower level is an oversized bedroom, which could be reconfigured as a playroom, and a huge wine cellar. The garage has an auto charger and ample storage. The home is just 5 minutes from the 24 freeway.
