Property Description
You’re not in the Hollywood hills, but this enduring classic designed by the Bay Area master of mid-century design, architect Donald Olsen, is as cool as a Los Angeles summer breeze. Olsen’s strict adherence to crisp iconic modular white buildings stood apart from fellow architects designing in the Bay Area tradition, whose houses mostly featured rustic natural woods. Modest & at the same time monumental, Olsen’s dedication to planning, efficiency, natural light, & visual framing of the adjacent landscape, create a magical home. Watch the lights of SF as the fog rolls in through the GG Bridge & envelopes the area below – the house floating above in a world of its own. With an expansive front garden & an intimate rear garden, it has been upgraded by the current sellers without impacting the integrity of the structure. Commercial grade front & rear glass doors open wide to extend the indoors outside. Updated kitchen & baths.
