Designed by Richard Whitaker, co-founder of Moore Lyndon Turnbull Whitaker — the firm whose work at Sea Ranch redefined California architecture and influenced residential design across the Pacific coast for generations — this home was built with intention from the first line drawn to the last nail set. The Sea Ranch influence is unmistakable and deliberate. Angular vaulted ceilings move through the interior with the confidence of a practiced hand, shaping space rather than simply enclosing it. A continuous column of natural light descends from the roofline skylight, through the stairwell and all the way to the landing of the primary bedroom, marking your passage through the house with something close to ceremony. Then there is the theater room. Behind a bookcase door off the main stairwell, a private two-tier media room is waiting for movie night. Crank up the volume or skip the screen and cozy up by the fire place in the living room and watch the day turn to night. Unobstructed San Francisco and Oakland city skylines, the Golden Gate and Bay Bridge, the Marin Headlands, the wide blue reach of the Bay and beyond can be enjoyed from every level. In a neighborhood where many homes in the area were rebuilt simply to maximize square footage, 267 Gravatt stands out as a stunning example of what architecture and design can achieve. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that brings all the vibes of the Sea Ranch to the heart of Claremont Hills!
