Set on one of Redwood City’s most admired Eichler streets, 1186 Lyons Street is a residence that captures the essence of mid-century modern design while offering the comfort and functionality today’s buyers demand. This extensively rebuilt and expanded Eichler presents a rare opportunity to own a home that honors Joseph Eichler’s vision while embracing modern upgrades—all just moments from Red Morton Park and the heart of Redwood City.

Reimagined with Integrity

First constructed during the height of Joseph Eichler’s Bay Area development era, the property was rebuilt in 2000 with careful attention to preserving its architectural character. Today, the home offers approximately 1,800 square feet of living space, thoughtfully expanded to include four spacious bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. This layout makes the property ideal for a variety of lifestyles, from families needing additional bedrooms, to professionals seeking flexible spaces for a home office, guest suite, or creative studio.

Bright, Open, and Effortlessly Modern

From the moment you step inside, Eichler’s influence is unmistakable. Vaulted ceilings with tongue-and-groove detail create an immediate sense of volume, while iconic post-and-beam lines add both drama and architectural clarity. Floor-to-ceiling glass walls draw in sunlight throughout the day, blurring the boundary between indoors and outdoors and connecting the living areas to the garden.

The open-plan great room anchors the home, with sliding glass doors opening directly to the patio and yard. Warm engineered wood floors and clean-lined finishes provide a balance between Eichler authenticity and modern ease.

A Kitchen Meant for Connection

The kitchen serves as a natural gathering place, designed to encourage both everyday living and entertaining. Granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a convenient dining bar make meal preparation and casual conversation seamless. A generous dining area sits alongside, with direct access to a side patio—perfect for al fresco dinners or quiet morning coffee.

Primary Suite with Garden Connection

The primary suite is positioned at the rear of the home for privacy and retreat. A large walk-in closet, sliding glass door to the backyard, and spa-inspired bathroom with quartz shower walls and a sleek contemporary vanity transform this space into a personal sanctuary.

Three additional bedrooms, a stylishly updated hall bath, and a powder room near the entry offer flexibility for family members, guests, or workspace needs.

A Backyard Designed for Living

Outdoors, the home continues to impress. A stone-paved patio provides the perfect setting for entertaining, while a wide grassy play area invites recreation, gardening, or simply unwinding in the California sun.

One of the property’s most unique features is the Yurt, a whimsical, versatile space tucked into the yard. Whether envisioned as a meditation room, yoga studio, playroom, or home office, this addition adds charm and unexpected functionality to the property.

Comfort and Convenience

While the Eichler design aesthetic has been preserved, the home benefits from a series of modern comforts, including:

• Abundant skylights for natural illumination

• Quartz and granite finishes throughout

• Updated radiant heating system

• Two-car attached garage with storage

• Smartly integrated modern upgrades that complement the home’s mid-century lines

Location: The Best of Redwood City

Beyond its walls, 1186 Lyons Street offers a lifestyle as desirable as the home itself. The property is only steps from Red Morton Park, Redwood City’s central community hub with recreation facilities, sports fields, and family-friendly events. Shops, restaurants, and schools are close at hand, while downtown Redwood City provides dining, entertainment, and a vibrant cultural scene.

For commuters, the neighborhood is exceptionally well-situated with easy access to Caltrain, Highway 101, and tech campuses including Meta, Google, and the greater Silicon Valley corridor.

A Rare Opportunity

Eichler homes in Redwood City’s Fairwood tract seldom reach the market, and 1186 Lyons Street is among the most desirable. With its expanded footprint, modern updates, and preserved architectural integrity, it offers the best of both worlds: authentic mid-century modern character and contemporary livability.

For buyers who have long admired the clean lines, walls of glass, and sense of openness that Eichlers deliver, this home is more than just a property—it’s a chance to live the lifestyle Joseph Eichler envisioned, reimagined for today.
