Rare One-level Single Family Residence In Plum Island (Foster City)!

- By Monica Lander

An exclusive pocket of homes in Foster City’s Plum Island neighborho­od is set along the waterfront wrapped in scenic, parkland grounds. Homeowners move in and stay in its tranquil setting that belies its proximity to highways, tech giants in Silicon Valley and San Francisco, and rarely does a home come on the market.

The sweet combinatio­n of a single-level floor plan and a fabulous waterfront view at 950 Aruba Lane is even more uncommon. Its ultra-private setting and an advantageo­us east-facing entry also contribute to its appeal and make this a very desirable property.

About 1,810 square feet of living space showcases vaulted ceilings, recessed lighting, fresh interior paint, and carpeting beyond the tile entry. An expansive living room with a woodburnin­g fireplace and its adjacent dining room has sliding glass doors to inviting outdoor areas.

An eat-in kitchen, updated with granite counters, cabinetry, GE Profile, and Kitchenaid appliances, also has a front-facing casual dining nook with a built-in window seat. Slide open the glass door for easy access to the covered deck.

Covered and open patios with perimeter gardens beds provide a picture-perfect setting for gathering with family and friends, outdoor dining, and just relaxing with a good book. A pathway meanders around a towering evergreen and garden beds, and a large deck spans the side of the home, providing yet another private outdoor venue.

Three bedrooms and two bathrooms include a master suite that also has a vaulted ceiling and a sliding glass door to the backyard and views. The master bath features a dual-sink vanity, a walk-in closet, and a tub/shower combinatio­n. Another bedroom has sliding door access to the front courtyard.

Steps from a walking path, this home also has access to the community pool, tennis court, and clubhouse. Additional features include a one-year-young roof with a 10-year workmanshi­p warranty and lifetime material warranty, and an indoor laundry niche. A two-car garage is outfitted with storage cabinetry and also has a pull-down ladder to storage in the attic.

Plum Island is within walking distance (less than a half-mile) to the 23-acre Sea Cloud Park filled with baseball diamonds, soccer fields, open lawn areas, a playground, batting cages, and more.

Centrally located, it is only about four miles from Highway 92 for the drive into the East Bay or west to the coast and Half Moon Bay, and about four miles from Highway 101 into Silicon Valley and north to San Francisco. Shopping and restaurant options are plenty and about four miles away at the Bridge-pointe and the Hillsdale Shopping Centers. It is also less than 12 miles from the San Francisco Internatio­nal Airport. Nearby top-rated schools include Foster City Elementary (API 930) about two miles away, and Bowditch Middle School (API 903) within three and a half miles.
