From a master of the pop art movement comes a home with artful eccentricity in full display. Vintage 1924 Craftsman details marry with bohemian 1970's creativity, with a broad brush of 1980's contemporary in the artist's soaring studio at the rear. Hardwood floors gleam, multi-paned built-ins glisten. The eat-in kitchen with Spanish tile motif opens to a porch and large rear deck. Three bedrooms and a full bathrm rest on the main floor. A coveted attic bedroom has a spectacular view of SF and the bay, with broad eaves used for storage. The lower level hosts a large family room with 1/4 bath and sink. From the family room step into The Studio. An office mezzanine overlooks the grand expanse where creativity still pulses. Bright windows reach to the ceiling. A former storage niche makes a nice sleeping area. A utility sink and counter suggest a future kitchenette. And a toilet/shower bathroom shows guests can be well accommodated. Step out to the sunny lower deck, and access the entirety from a separate entrance if needed. Don't miss a basement with laundry, workshop, darkroom (or wine cellar!) and numerous storage platforms. Tastefully landscaped front and back, this home welcomes the next generation and its whirr of creativity. Blocks to Rockridge BART & shops. Views: Downtown
