Property Description
"ONCE IN A LIFETIME, a home with the provenance of Bernard Maybeck's Wallen II house comes to market. Built for Maybeck's own son, this extraordinary residence seamlessly blends the master's signature style-concrete walls and redwood timbers-with Gary Parson's thoughtful modern addition. Every detail honors both Maybeck's vision and the magical hillside setting. Artistic copper details by Kip Mesirow complement the tastefully remodeled kitchen that opens to a private fenced orchard. Expansive commercial sliding windows dissolve the boundaries between interior spaces and the outdoors. Perched atop the Kensington hills, this private sanctuary offers both bay and hill views, yet is just minutes from local shops and restaurants."
