What We Want: Property of the Week

For #WIW Wednesday, we thought we'd highlight a home that we've been watching transform: 45 Roberta Drive in Woodside.  And while we can't afford the home, we can dream.

Located on a private road in Woodside, this home is stunning. For just shy of $25M, you get 4+ landscaped acres, a 12,000 square foot home, pool, two garages, a barn, and a guest cottage.  Spread out over three floors, there are 5 bedrooms (all ensuite) plus an office. The house exudes California living with a modern farmhouse style focused on relaxed indoor-outdoor living.  This home is offered through Linda Hymes at Intero Real Estate. 

The open, airy great room is inviting, with a large center isle with marble waterfall and windows to the yard.

Bedrooms are large, and in keeping with the rustic charm of the neighborhood, they've incorporated wood beams in the design while still keeping the home fresh and modern.  Large windows bring the outdoors in while a fireplace keeps the space warm.

Bathrooms also appear to be spacious. We love the use of the warm wood accents, marble countertops, walls, and floors, and the combination of different metals to warm the space up.  With so much marble, it would have been easy for this room to appear sterile and cold.  Instead, it looks warm and inviting.

As a team that largely works from our home offices, we appreciate a well thought out space. With walls of windows and doors that fold open to the tranquil outdoors, this is a place where work can easily be done. Again, we love the wood beam accents to warm the space and the wide plank floors. We would never go into the office again if this was our home office!

We could go on and on about this beautiful house. We've included a gallery of images including the backyard, guest house interior and basement. Interested in a virtual tour? You can find that here.
