Features

Perfectly sited on nearly an acre of level land, this private Ross oasis offers the ideal indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Entering through the beautiful wrought iron gates past the stately heritage date palms, one immediately feels relaxed, as if you are on vacation. 

All of the grand scale public rooms open to the outdoors -- sweeping level lawns, bluestone patios, wide verandas, sparkling pool, and glorious gardens. The southwestern orientation floods this property with light, all day long. The built-in barbeque area and outdoor fireplace, crafted of Kennesaw ledge stone, are perfect for entertaining. 

Completely remodeled recently, the 5-bedroom, 7-bath turn-key home offers the ideal layout for modern living. Although recently built, the architectural design is classic, inspired by the work of noted architect Bernard Maybeck. Interior design was done with the highest quality fixtures and finishes throughout. The custom millwork is exquisite, and includes a cherry-paneled library. The recently remodeled kitchen is a chef’s delight, with custom cabinetry, marble counters, and high-end appliances. A “great” room is an understatement for the spacious kitchen/family room. A second family room has Nana Doors; both family rooms open to the patio, lawn, and pool. It is so easy to imagine entertaining in a home like this, with the seamless integration between indoor and outdoor spaces. 

All five bedrooms have renovated en-suite bathrooms. The master and three additional bedrooms are upstairs, nicely separated from the main level public spaces. The master is a true sanctuary, with its sitting room, sleeping porch, and marble bathroom. A luxurious guest suite is on the main level. 

Among the many “green” features of this modern home are solar panels, which provide heat for the pool and home. Other amenities include a wine cellar and a 3-car garage, with storage area above. The gardens are abundant, with roses, peonies, vegetables, Japanese maples, magnolias, and espalier fruit trees. 

Just 20 minutes from San Francisco, Ross is one of the most desirable communities in the Bay Area. 130 Laurel Grove is within the membership boundaries of the exclusive Priory Swim and Tennis Club, just down the street. Some of the best hiking and biking trails can be found in Ross, starting with Phoenix Lake and going right up Mt. Tam. Just a few blocks from this home are the distinguished Ross K-8 School and charming downtown Ross.

Neighborhood

Ross

Don't let the grand homes, private tennis courts, and gated drives fool you. Beneath its opulent exterior, Ross remains a perfect place to raise a family. That's not just an opinion-according to the 2000 census, 30% of the residents of Ross are children and teenagers.

The kids of Ross typically attend Ross Elementary School, which was recently named one of the 10 best schools in the country by Child Magazine. The Branson School, also in Ross, is an elite, private college preparatory school serving students in grades 9-12.

When they aren't attending the some of the best schools in the nation the kids of Ross, along with their Moms and nannies can be found in the pristine Ross Common, or picnicking, hiking and fishing in nearby Phoenix Lake. Hiking and biking trails abound, and it's easy to spend the day on Mt. Tam. Be sure to start by visiting Cafe on the Common, a hole-in-the-wall bakery and load up on their fresh, out of this world pastries and coffee. Diners can choose either Italian home cooking at Trattoria Fresco, or the French Provincial cuisine at Marche aux Fleurs, a restaurant noted for its elegant garden dining, and menu featuring the freshest, local seasonal ingredients available.
