Architectural Elegance. Luxury Hillsborough Living.
Set along one of South Hillsborough’s most prestigious streets, 729 Chiltern Road is a beautifully reimagined estate that blends timeless architecture with sophisticated modern design. Behind the custom private gates and expansive stone driveway and towering trees and verdant landscaping, the home offers exceptional privacy, refined interiors, and a lifestyle centered around effortless indoor-outdoor living, entertaining and relaxation.

The grounds unfold like a private resort, framed by stunning California native mature trees and newly curated landscaping with hundreds of architectural plantings. Sculptural water features and thoughtfully designed lighting create a space designed for both entertaining and relaxation. A custom pool and jacuzzi, cabana, outdoor kitchen, farm-to-table raised beds and multiple dining, and lounge spaces create a destination for gathering with family and friends.

Inside, the home reveals a graceful mix of elegant formal spaces and relaxed living areas. The formal living room, centered around a striking stone fireplace, opens seamlessly to the terrace and gardens. The formal dining room glows beneath a sculptural designer fixture and flows easily outdoors for alfresco dining.  We love our chosen metal French doors added throughout the main level to allow for a plethora of light and plunging access to the private stone patio, and verdant grounds.  

At the heart of the home is the architectural kitchen and great room. A dramatic 14-foot Cristallo stone island anchors the space, complemented by Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, custom cabinetry, and warm exposed beam ceilings. A stunning designer light fixture crowns the room, while the adjacent breakfast and living areas create a welcoming hub for everyday life.

The office-library offers a moody and sophisticated retreat, highlighted by a sculptural brass light fixture that casts a warm glow. Throughout the residence, hand-selected designer lighting adds a distinctive design element to each space.
Five en-suite bedrooms and eight newly remodeled bathrooms provide luxurious accommodations, with spa-like finishes including marble, designer tile, and custom cabinetry. Additional highlights include a media room, gym, two laundry rooms, and five fireplaces, all unified by wide-plank engineered white oak floors and integrated smart lighting and AV systems by Savant.  

Modern infrastructure includes a composite slate roof with solar, dual backup batteries, EV charging, a new electrical system, and a new high-efficiency multi-zone HVAC system, all with a click away to control and program to your smart-house wishes. 

Just minutes from top-rated Hillsborough schools, downtown Burlingame, Burlingame Country Club, and key commuter routes, 729 Chiltern Road, offers the rare combination of thoughtful design, modern comfort, and an exceptional Lower-South Hillsborough location…Chiltern Road is highly regarding and identified as one of the best streets in Hillsborough.
