With views of the Santa Cruz Mountains and access to adjacent open space, this San Mateo Highlands mid-century home offers a laidback suburban lifestyle only minutes from Downtown San Mateo and Burlingame. The Eichler classic has wood beam and plank ceilings, walls of dual-pane windows and sliding glass doors, and new, engineered, white oak flooring, throughout.
Blissful views from floor-to-ceiling windows, a corner block fireplace, and glass doors to the backyard patio and lawn, define the living room. Warm and inviting, the updated kitchen has a suite of appliances, mountain views and an adjoining family/dining room that opens to side and back yard patios. Bedrooms have customized closets with mirrored doors, including the primary with an en suite bathroom and a wall of windows with patio access.
Harmonious and peaceful, you'll forget about busy Peninsula life in the valley below and learn to live in the moment. Take a deep breath. Every convenience you can (probably) imagine is only a couple of miles away, plus you're equidistant to San Francisco and Palo Alto — global centers of culture, technology and innovation.
Sit back, relax and enjoy the view.
