Enjoy the beautiful Bay Area of San Francisco in a NEW CUSTOM-BUILT GORGEOUS, and MODERN HOME NEVER INTENDED TO BE A RENTAL.

It's become a HAVEN for EXPECTING GRANDPARENTS, PARENTS visiting KIDS, and even OUR NEIGHBORS who are remodeling their homes. And don't forget our weather in Redwood City --“Best by Government Test”!
