Grand Midcentury Modern Estate

Located in the highly coveted enclave of Claremont Pines, this newly reconceived grand midcentury modern estate is a masterclass in architectural harmony, blending the organic warmth of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie Style with the effortless glamour of a never-ending holiday retreat. A statement in both form and function, the home embraces a seamless connection to nature, where floor-to-ceiling mahogany-framed windows invite the outdoors in, and exquisitely crafted details nod to a bygone era of meticulous craftsmanship.

Step through the striking midcentury pivot door into a foyer that speaks of elegance and restraint, where a sleek coat closet melds into the space, setting the tone for the thoughtful design found throughout. To the left, the formal living room is a study in balance, with a generous fireplace anchoring the space, accent wallpaper adding depth, and a cascade of natural light filtering through those magnificent mahogany windows.

To the right, a secondary living area flows into the heart of the home, with connected kitchen and dining areas designed for both intimate gatherings and grand entertaining. The dining space, replete with built-in cabinetry, offers a picturesque view of the lush front garden through another set of floor-to-ceiling windows. The kitchen itself is a triumph—custom leather-wrapped cabinetry exudes an understated opulence, while the expansive center island, topped with a striking stone countertop, invites leisurely mornings and lively dinner parties. Paneled appliances blend seamlessly into the space, preserving the home’s clean lines and uninterrupted aesthetic. Just beyond, the family room centers around a second fireplace, with an adjacent wet bar offering effortless hospitality. Here, corner accordion doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, leading to the covered lanai—an alfresco sanctuary outfitted with a wood accent ceiling and corner fireplace, creating a year-round escape. Beyond the kitchen, function meets luxury with a well-appointed laundry room, a versatile office space, and a two-car garage that extends into a private yoga and workout studio—an enclave of serenity and focus.

The left wing of the home is devoted to restful repose. A chic powder room sets the stage for the sleeping quarters, where three bedrooms provide sumptuous retreats, one featuring french doors that open to a secluded patio, a private portal to the landscaped gardens, while another creates the perfect extended family retreat with bifold doors out to the garden. An additional bedroom, full hall bath, and a generous storage closet help complete the wing. But it is the primary suite that truly elevates the notion of sanctuary. Expansive windows stretch the length of the room, framing a tableau of greenery. Dual walk-in closets ensure effortless organization, while textured accent wallpaper and flanking reading lights lend a touch of boutique hotel sophistication. The ensuite bath is a spa-like haven—an oasis of tranquility with a private water closet, dual trough sinks, and a wet room shower that cradles a floating bathtub above a bed of accent river rocks. Completing the home are the thoughtfully designed garden areas, featuring a lush grassy lawn in the front and an expansive hillside garden in the back, adorned with established plantsing, winding  pathways, and mature fruit trees that provide seasonal abundance and natural beauty year-round.

Situated on a  tree-lined street, this estate is an unparalleled retreat just moments from the fine dining of Rockridge, the prestige of the Claremont Country Club, and the easy cosmopolitan reach of San Francisco. It is a home that not only captures the aesthetic ideals of midcentury modernism but embodies a lifestyle of effortless refinement and enduring allure.
