  • Square Feet: 2236
  • Bedrooms: 4
  • Bathrooms: 3 Baths
  • Built: 1956
  • Features: Every now and then, a truly special property becomes available, however, to call 501 Montgomery Road special is an understatement, as this home is nothing short of extraordinary. When the owners purchased this property it was a small ranch home with only 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a little over 1,000 sq ft. Today, you will find 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2,236 square feet of exquisite living space housed in beautiful mid-century modern design. The work that has been done is far beyond a renovation, it truly is a work of art. Not only has this home been rebuilt and built anew, but it was done using green infrastructure throughout, a rarity in and of itself. Your first glimpse is a spacious foyer w/ unique Sierra Stone floor. Through the foyer is the heart of the home, one magnificent room that is open from the living room straight through to the kitchen, boasting soaring ceilings & clerestory windows. The kitchen can easily accommodate more than one cook & several guests at the 6'x5' island. The counter space is expansive and storage is endless. The SS appliances are well laid out, creating a comfortable work flow. Off to your right, is the addition, a bright & spacious hallway w/ access to the master & guest suites, & exits to both front & rear patios. The master suite is a peaceful place offering a Zen-like sitting room, well appointed bath & walk-in closet. Small, thoughtful details, like pocket doors in all the right places, add to the harmonic functionality of this home. Down the hall is a private guest suite complete w/ full bath. On the opposite side of the house you will find 2 nicely sized bedrooms & hall bath. Although these bedrooms are part of the original footprint, the roof was configured to allow for clerestory windows, creating a beautiful environment bathed in natural light. All rooms have ceiling fans & custom shades on every window, the clerestory window shades above are remotely operated. Down below, the basement is vast. The first room houses the laundry & impressive mechanical setup,. Beyond that you will find a finished room and the new basement which is a huge, open space w/ egress in place. There are both front and rear patios. The garage offers enough room for 2 cars & plenty of toys. The lot is absolutely beautiful & private w/ extensive native plantings, raised garden beds, & fencing. The owners did all of this for themselves, w/ the utmost care & respect for the home & our environment; they spared absolutely no expense.
