On flat, tree-lined Bennington Street in Bernal Heights, situated on a rare 25 x 100-foot lot, this three-story home is the one you've been waiting for! 135 Bennington is steps to Cortland's village of shops, cafes, and restaurants, and it blends the highest quality custom craftsmanship with modern, highly functional design.
At close to 2500 square feet, the home features four bedrooms, three full baths, a family room, a laundry room, expansive decks and gardens, skylight and much more. Taken to the studs and redesigned in 2015, the home boasts an open concept floor-plan that is ideal for family living and entertaining.
At the heart of the house, the bright living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow together with a fireplace, picture windows of sweeping Bayviews, and French doors to a spacious deck —overlooking the Bay, perfect for an herb garden or grilling. The professional kitchen features a large 8' island with counter seating, a six-burner Thermador range, a pantry room, and more. Two spacious bedrooms look out on to a gorgeous green tree, each with large custom closets and a full tiled bath complete this level.
Downstairs at street level is an entire floor dedicated to the sumptuous master retreat that opens to a private deck and a walk-in closet. The luxurious ensuite master bath, tiled floor-to-ceiling with limestones, features a frame-less glass shower room, deep soaking tub, and heated floors. A custom-designed 10-feet tempered glass wall allows natural sunlight to fill the space. At the garden level, a gorgeous guest bedroom suite with its a separate private entry comes with a tiled ensuite bath, and a family room opens to a dream-like backyard. The professionally landscaped yard is replete with multiple decks, a lush lawn, a firepit patio space, and an outdoor sound system that is perfect for gathering. High-ceiling complimented by wide-plank white oak floors.
Beautiful fixtures and finishes throughout. New systems, windows, foundation, and roof. Hardwired security system, and built-in indoor and outdoor professional-grade speakers. One car garage, with interior access, and ample storage. With a 91 WalkScore – a 'Walkers Paradise' – this location literally steps to the Epicurean Trader, Good Life Grocery, Pinhole, Avedanos, and more. And, it's a quick walk to take the dog to Bernal Hill, or the kids to Holly Park and Bernal Library playgrounds. Catch the tech shuttles or freeways south. This one-of-a-kind home is truly a very rare find.
