Waterfront Luxury in the Heart of Downtown Benicia Wake up to the Carquinez Strait and the iconic bridge, every single day, from a residence built in 2009 that makes the case for itself the moment you walk through the door. A striking red onyx entryway sets the tone, an architectural signature you won't find twice. Throughout, transom windows crowned with banker's glass rise above solid wood doors, oversized baseboards and crown moulding lend a level of custom detail rarely seen, and ceilings soaring 9 to 12 feet give every room a sense of scale that feels unmistakably grand. The kitchen is built for people who actually cook, and for people who love to entertain the ones who do. Honed marble countertops, a Wolf double oven and cooktop, and a Bosch hood and refrigerator anchor a space where form and function meet, the soft matte finish of the marble adding quiet sophistication rather than shine. A generous island doubles as bar seating, the dining area flows naturally alongside it, and every sightline points back to the water. Both the living room and en suite primary bedroom offer gas fireplaces paired with unobstructed water views, a rare combination that turns ordinary evenings into something worth savoring. Silhouette blinds adjust effortlessly to control light and privacy, while designer fans with uplighting bring warmth to the bedrooms and living room alike. Two additional bedrooms and an impeccable marble-floored guest bath give family or guests their own comfortable retreat, and a well-appointed powder room completes the main living spaces. This is downtown Benicia living at its most elevated: a three-car garage and private elevator mean effortless, single-level ease no matter which floor you're on, while coffee, celebrated dining, and the events that make Benicia one of the Bay Area's most beloved small towns are just around the corner. HOA dues of $367/month keep the lifestyle as effortless as the address. Waterfront. Walkable. Unmistakably rare. This is the one you stop searching for.
