The Pabst Estate

   

440 Pullman Road, Hillsborough  Commissioned in 1953 for the Pabst family, of Pabst Blue Ribbon brewing fame, this estate home presents traditional Colonial styling with "old Hollywood" glitz and grandeur befitting that era. Upon entering the home, one can only imagine the magnificent entertaining that unfolded throughout the years within the palatial dimensions of over 10,000 square feet. The entrance salon, complete with concealed bar room, takes center stage beside the banquet-sized dining room and majestic living room. But it is the grounds themselves that are surely the focal point for entertaining with a backdrop of dramatic Bay views that span the San Francisco skyline, East Bay hills, and southern Peninsula. The formal grounds remain in perfect balance with the vast scale of the home, offering an entertainment terrace that winds beside stretches of level lawn and a signature circular rose garden Replicating the circular design at the edge of the grounds is a large fountain between two obelisks standing sentry to the views   beyond. Back inside, the main home encompasses two levels with 5 bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms. A staff suite off the kitchen plus a second suite near the living room, also ideal for an office, are located on the main level while the upper level is comprised of a series of three interconnecting bedrooms, bathrooms, and dressing rooms - each a relaxing and private sanctuary. Further expanding the accommodations is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment, which provides flexibility for extended family living, staff, or guest quarters. Completing the appeal of this classic mid-century estate is the east wing, devoted entirely to recreation and entertainment. An indoor swimming pool anchors the wing surrounded by numerous sitting areas including a fire pit conversation area, separate game room with built-in barbecue and full kitchen, and lounge that once boasted a glamorous spot for ladies to primp and preen. Recalling the halcyon days when wealthy industrialists from San Francisco escaped to the country setting of Hillsborough, this unrivaled estate will continue to make lasting memories for generations to come.
