About this single-family home
A most unbelievable art-filled experience, that makes you feel as if you’ve been transported to Pompeii or Taormina, Italy. Enjoy the domed frescos and views of Mt. Tam, the Bay Bridge and San Francisco Bay. This Richmond View hill house was self-built by Thomas Gordon Smith, a leader in contemporary developments of classical architecture (tgsarch.com). The front and back gardens have delightful fruits and herbs; lime, lemon, fig, rosemary, and bay bush with a drip water system. This house has 3 levels of grand space created for entertaining. There are two bedrooms, and two baths on the lower level. The 2nd level is for entertaining in the large kitchen and the family room with a domed ceiling projecting music with acoustic perfection, as if it were made for a music venue. The top level is perfect for the writer, painter, or just a large office, and don’t miss the secret entrance to the balcony overlooking the living room. This house is less than a mile from BART, El Cerrito Natural Grocery, and the Rialto movie theater. Experience this Mediterranean masterpiece and imagine the opportunity of vacation living from home.
