Property Description

Architecture in balance: living at the edge of design and nature. Suspended above the city in coveted Council Crest, this custom 1989 residence is more than a home — it’s a feat of engineering. Built by Blum/Smith Construction Co. and designed to embrace its dramatic hillside setting, the structure rests on 21 steel piers, each driven up to 20 feet into the ground until they hit bedrock. The result is a sense of weightlessness — where vaulted ceilings, wide-open spaces, and panoramic southern views create a feeling of floating in the trees. Every room in the 3,146-square-foot layout opens to light and landscape, framing a vista that shifts with the seasons. The airy floor plan includes three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a thoughtfully designed kitchen with eating area and generous storage. The deck—originally envisioned as a “back yard in the sky” — was fully rebuilt in 2022 with structural plans by James G. Pierson, Inc. and engineering by Grummel Engineering LLC. Executed by Lux Construction at an investment of nearly $280,000, it now stands as a testament to craftsmanship and integrity, hovering just beyond the glass like an extension of the hillside itself. A rare and remarkable home, where engineering, elegance, and nature live in harmony. Of note: views from every room, oversized deck rebuilt in 2022 — steel engineered and structurally reinforced, gas fireplace, 2-car garage with car charger and workshop above, level driveway with off-street parking, located on a pedestrian-friendly stretch of Fairmount Blvd, whole home generator installed in 2025.
