The View From Here Is Unlike Anything Else

There are homes with views, and then there is this.

Sitting at the top of Westwood Highlands, this stunning 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom detached home offers one of the most remarkable panoramas in San Francisco. On a clear day the view stretches from the Pacific Ocean across the Bay all the way to the San Mateo Bridge. It is the kind of view that stops you mid-sentence. The kind you never quite get used to, no matter how long you’ve lived here.

The home has been meticulously remodeled this year, and it shows in every detail. At approximately 3,740 square feet, the spaces feel generous and considered rather than simply large. Ceilings soar. Newly stained white oak floors bring warmth underfoot. Bay windows and double-paned glass pull in light from every angle, and new sliding doors open directly onto the front patio. That patio is more than usable outdoor space. It is the perfect place to have dinner with the view in front of you, linger over a morning coffee, or simply sit and watch the Bay change color through the afternoon.

Day-to-day living flows beautifully here. A proper entry foyer, anchored by midcentury geometric black and white tile, sets the tone the moment you walk in. The living room, centered around a gas fireplace, is comfortable enough for a quiet night and impressive enough for a large gathering. The formal dining room handles the bigger occasions with ease. The remodeled kitchen is anchored by a peninsula with counter seating and outfitted with the new GE Café appliance series, floating shelves, and large-format tiled floors. This a kitchen that looks the part and works even better than it looks. A dedicated family and media room gives everyone a place to spread out, unwind, or disappear into a good film.

The bedroom layout is genuinely practical. Four bedrooms are clustered together on one level, offering the kind of proximity that works well. The large primary bedroom has ample closets and a spacious bathroom with walk-in shower and soaking tub. A fifth bedroom sits on the main living level with direct access to a full bathroom. Ideal for guests, a home office, or anyone who simply wants a little more separation from the rest of the house. Three well-appointed bathrooms serve the entire home.

Step outside and more than 600 square feet of decking awaits, including a walk-out view deck finished in Ipe hardwood that puts the full panorama right in front of you. It is the kind of outdoor space that becomes the heart of the home from the first warm day of spring through the last mild evening of fall.

The mezzanine level adds real flexibility, equally well-suited as a media room, a home gym, private offices, or co-working space, with additional storage throughout. Whatever you need it to be, it can be that.

Practical details are handled just as thoughtfully: whole-home intercom, designer lighting, in-unit washer and dryer, and a three-car independent garage parking with direct interior access and storage. This is not simply a property. It is something genuinely rare — a large, sprawling home with a suburban sense of space and ease, sitting squarely in the middle of San Francisco.
