Atherton Classic Revival
The remarkable story of this remodel begins in San Francisco where the home was originally built in 1904. Then in 1925 the house was lifted from its location and sent on a barge down the bay to Atherton, where it was placed among towering heritage oak trees and ornamental azaleas and camellias. The ageing structure was stripped down to its framing and had its foundation replaced before being transformed into the beautiful home that now stands. Two wings were added on either side to expand the home, creating an open space for an expansive kitchen and family room on one side of the house, and a master suite with his and hers bathrooms on the other. Ornate moldings vary by room, exemplifying the custom craftsmanship throughout this American neoclassical home. The white wood-paneled walls and exquisitely detailed archways lead guests from room to room to take on sights such as hand-stitched wall coverings and gorgeous chandeliers. This home also features an artist studio in the backyard. Shaped like a barn and with numerous large windows, this studio provides a space to create while overlooking the pool and the well-manicured landscape.
Saratoga Hilltop Contemporary
Clean and contemporary takes on new meaning with this 12,000 sq. ft. single family home in the Saratoga Hills. With stunning 360° panoramas of Silicon Valley, this home offers fantastic outdoor living spaces complete with a custom exterior kitchen, corten steel fire pits, and large rooftop entertaining areas. The property includes a guest house, an 85’ infinity pool, and large gardens.
Designed with the environment in mind, this home makes the most of its location and features a partial living green roof. Large cisterns are buried underground and collect rainwater to help reduce environmental impact, and the rooftop solar panels help ensure energy efficiency. The exterior of the home was specially designed to help reduce heating and cooling costs. The luxurious interior is a combination of European and Asian influences and was designed to blend together with the natural beauty of the surrounding mountain wilderness.
Los Gatos Contemporary
Nestled high in the hills, this contemporary Los Gatos home was built for entertaining. Designed to highlight artwork, this home features a custom gallery space with plenty of natural light and 30’ ceilings in the great room. Personal touches include dual islands in the kitchen, as well as separate offices and master baths for him and her.
The home’s owners have several luxurious interior spaces to entertain guests including a wine cellar, a theater, and a game room with a bar area in the basement. Outside, they can relax and enjoy the expansive rooftop deck and fire pit, complete with a clear view all the way to San Francisco.
Los Gatos Tuscan Manor
This sprawling three story Tuscan Manor is located in the hills of Los Gatos. All three floors are connected by a beautiful winding staircase, and the ceilings are accented by antique hand-hewn wooden beams. The master bath features a custom-tiled floating tub with a special arched shower.
The manor has a fully finished basement and an attached round garage, designed to mimic an old water cistern. Complete with an olive grove and natural California vegetation, the property includes the main house and a guest house, both of which have roofs made from imported clay tile. The entire home can be powered with the included generator.
Saratoga Family Wonderland
Originally built in the ’80s, we completely gutted and renovated this Saratoga home, which has views of the bay. Set into the hillside, it has three floors, and a four car garage. Built for a family with many children, the 2.7 acre site is fully developed to allow the kids room to roam.
Conrado also installed the pools and landscaping for this project. The backyard has both a plunge pool with slide, as well as an adjacent lap pool. Spectacular in scope, the pools truly make you feel like you are in Disneyland.
