Majestic Piedmont Estate

60 King Avenue, Piedmont, California, United States, 94611

The 60 King Avenue estate epitomizes Piedmont’s legacy of fine early twentieth-century architecture. Designed by renowned architect William Knowles and built in 1913, it suggests monumental dimensions and enduring elegance.

Perhaps the grandest staircase in Piedmont, a brick ascent eighteen feet wide, ceremonially lifts the eye to the terra firma of a grand manor with strategic views. Stately, period architectural elements throughout the home, such as formal segmented arched windows and doorways, fireplaces, and hardwood floors retain their centennial splendor.

The property, verging on a half acre, incorporates a pool and spa, surrounded by patios and a variety of gardens from a Baroque rose garden to an orangerie–directly accessible from the public rooms.

The interior comprises three extensive floors of living space and offers spectacular views of San Francisco Bay and beyond. 

The floor plan includes a library and sunroom in addition to the formal living and dining rooms on the main floor, a ballroom, family room, a half bath, and wine cellar on the lower level, and six bedrooms, a study, and four full bathrooms plus a half bath on the upper level. An elevator serves the three floors of gracious living.
