About this single-family home
7046 Cutting is a masterpiece of Japanese Midcentury architecture utilizing warm woods, expansive windows, shoji screens, and natural elements to create a calm space in harmony with the exterior landscaping. From every angle, one’s eye is caught by the impressive attention to detail throughout. The front entry offers a peaceful transition from the hustle of outside, while the large corner window, with mirror column, brings the SF bay right into your living room. The dining room and kitchen offer a beautiful balance - both open to each other while offering a nice separation via well placed built-ins and functional shoji screens. The family room, originally built as a custom tea room for the practice of Japanese team ceremony, is a contemplative space directly connected to the back garden. And, the 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms provide a private separation from the public spaces. Originally built in 1956, the home was masterfully redesigned in the 80s by its owner, Ittsei, an accomplished architect engineer. You can also see his work in the design of the Peterson Memorial Garden at the Asian Art Museum in SF, along with the design of the “Peace Bell” in the same garden. Zoned Madera Elementary. Close to Canyon Trail & Tasajara Parks, Motorcycle Hill, and BART for easy commutes.
