Gracious Colonial Revival, custom built in 1941, and sited in the center of �??�¢??�??�?�½ acre of grounds and gardens. Hidden behind a veil of cypress, with expansive lawns and a hedgerow path, this home is reminiscent of an elegant bygone era. The layout of the house is the classic Colonial central floor plan; entry hall with living room and dining room on either side of the formal entry hall. A sweeping staircase in the entry hall leads to the sleeping areas on the second floor. The design of the house includes curved walls that follow the lines of the staircase. On the entry level is a living room the breadth of the house, a formal dining room, an oversized kitchen plus butler�??�?�¢??s pantry, a library, an office, and level-in access to an attached two car garage. Upstairs, each bedroom is graciously proportioned. The commodious master suite features filtered bay views, two separate dressing rooms, and a large private bath accented with white marble. On the lower level is a large carpeted family room that opens to a patio garden area. This home has fabulous indoor to outdoor flow. Five different rooms open to the garden in front or the patios and gardens in the back. The central floor plan, easy flow from room to room and access to the garden areas make this grand estate in El Cerrito ideal for entertaining.
