House: defined as a structure intended for human habitation. For most, a home’s functionality is a top priority, but what if a home could be both functional and experiential. Curated, designed and custom built by the current owner in 1983, 245 Altura Drive is far more than just a house; it is a bespoke, understated, thoughtfully created architectural masterpiece. Combining elements of mid-century modern and post-modern design, the residence is perfectly sited on this almost ½ acre, fully gated flag lot. Greeted at the street by an electronic gate that sets the stage for a striking residence framed by a natural landscape and mature trees. One has the feeling of being away in the mountains while still being in the city. The brick lined foyer leads to stunning living spaces with vaulted ceilings, clerestory windows providing indirect natural lighting, and a wall of sliding doors – five in total that lead to the backyard deck. A striking fireplace and a stunning frameless glass-on-glass corner window are further highlights of the living spaces. Adjacent to the living room is a study/game room with walls of custom cabinetry and clerestory windows. Seamlessly flowing from the living room is the dining area and relaxation sitting area adjacent the kitchen. A dining nook with sliding door to front patio enjoys great southern light exposure and leads into the minimalist kitchen with solid wood cabinetry and recessed lighting along with a butcher block center island. The bedroom wing of the home is laid out on two levels and includes a highly unique two-level primary suite featuring a retreat sitting area below, also ideal as a home office, and a primary bedroom upstairs that feels like a tree house with a wall of windows overlooking the tree tops. The en-suite bathroom features custom ‘floating’ dual sink vanity and walls of closet space and a skylight for natural lighting. Four generously sized secondary bedrooms and two additional bathrooms complete the interior. Direct access to the 3-car garage is conveniently found in the hallway. Stepping outside, an expansive deck provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining overlooking the city and hill views to the north. Meandering paths wind throughout the property and native plantings and mature trees truly provide a reprieve from the city around you – escape it all and call 245 Altura Drive home.
