About this single-family home
Mini-mansion on a serene tree-lined street which was named after builder Robert C. Hillen who, in association with Walter W. Dixon in the 1920’s, developed housing in the Maxwell Park neighborhood close to Mills College. This one of a kind property features details in the facade such as, the arched front window and doorway, the crenelated parapet and the waving fascia, reminiscent of the storybook style houses designed by Dixon and Hillen and featured in their Home Design Magazine as “modest mansions”. The house has since been enlarged to accommodate 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms – it is one of the largest houses on the street. The bright and generous living room leads to an elegant dining room. The extra spacious kitchen, with eat-in area, opens up to a deck and a private back-yard. There is a bonus room, many possibilities for office space, playroom and plenty of storage space. The house is fully refinished. There is a long gated driveway to the garage offering plenty of off-street parking. The neighborhood is friendly & diverse; you will get to know your neighbors when walking to the lovely Maxwell Park.
