"SKY House" is a unique property perched amidst the Redwood trees in the East Bay Hills. Built in 1960, the architecture is world-class mid-century modern, with a Japanese influence. The house is cantilevered from the hillside on steel beams and concrete pillars, creating a sense that it is floating "above it all" amongst the tree-tops.

The walls of floor-to-ceiling glass include sliding doors which open onto an enormous entertainment deck , offering unimpeded panoramic views of San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge. This vista is arguably one of the best in the San Francisco Bay area. The feng shui of the main living room is perfect: deck and views on the northern side; waterfall and koi pond on the southern side; huge architectural steel fireplace on cantilevered integrated color concrete base centered on the adjoining wall. The effect created is one that merges air, water and fire.

The atmosphere is peaceful and serene, and yet filled with a sense of opportunity. To be placed in full view of such grandeur is awe-inspiring. It is rare to find such architecture that allows the view so fully into the room.

Wildlife is abundant: deer, squirrels and raccoons are frequently seen exploring our gardens.
