Description
One of Rockridge’s most architecturally distinctive homes, Dragon House was originally designed by Ace Architects for Parent’s Press publisher Dixie Jordan. Inspired by Maybeck’s iconic Hearst Hall (lost to fire in 1922), its dramatic 22-foot vaulted ceilings and copper-shingled roof made it an instant neighborhood landmark when completed in 1994. Beautifully reimagined by Sogno Design Group, the home balances sculptural drama with everyday comfort. The breathtaking living room opens to a sun-drenched front deck with neighborhood and Golden Gate / Bay views. A few steps up, the beautifully appointed bespoke chef’s kitchen anchors the home, while the dining area spills effortlessly to a lush level backyard - complete with putting green - an entertainer’s dream for indoor-outdoor living. Two bedrooms and a full bath finish the main level. Upstairs, a generous office with private Bay view deck complements a tranquil primary suite overlooking the garden with another Bay view deck. Prime location minutes to College Ave, Rockridge BART, and Hwys 13 & 24. Zoned for top-rated Hillcrest (TK–8). Rare. Iconic. Unmistakably Rockridge.
