Lumiere House was built by Walter Thomas Brooks and his family as their private residence. In quirky, quiet Pt Richmond, on a waterfront lot that is beautifully terraced and landscaped. Surrounded by mature fruit trees, fish ponds, walls of ferns, and reflecting pools. With views of Mt Tam, Golden Gate Bridge, Richmond Bridge, sail boats and ships, it's hard to take your eyes off the water. Brooks synthesized many of his design concepts into his home. Including: crystalline structures that refract light like a prism by making the walls of the home translucent. Earth shelter design focused on a small footprint, passive solar, and sleek lines that are copacetic with nature. Aerodynamic ship building sensibility seen in the built-in furniture, prow shaped front of the home, 2 mezzanines, and crow's nest at the top. With walkways that appear to float in water, cathedral like ceilings, walls of ocean facing windows, even the detached garage has a Golden Gate Bridge view. The ground floor contains the living room, kitchen, primary bedroom, and bathroom. Functional kitchen with open shelving, refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, and counter top range. The bathroom has a walk-in shower, elegant hardware, and terra cotta tile floors. Upstairs is the 2nd bedroom and built- in office. 3rd floor with built in shelving and desk plus space to lounge and watch the boats go by. The crows nest roof top deck is at the very top of the home, with unparalleled views of the bay. This 2 bedroom / 1 bath home has been featured in numerous publications, including the inaugural volume of Dwell (October, 2000), Fine Homebuilding, Sunset Magazine, and Newsweek. Lumiere House will surely inspire conversation and admiration. A unique architectural home with world class bay views, dreamy gardens and water features, and serene energy. It cannot be missed! Open Saturday, 7/25, 2-4 and Sunday, 7/26, 2-4. OFFERS DUE 7/29 BY NOON
