A Highlands Masterpiece: 2055 Ticonderoga Road – Mid-Century Design Elevated

Few neighborhoods capture the magic of mid-century modern living quite like the San Mateo Highlands, and few homes embody the spirit of Joseph Eichler as beautifully as 2055 Ticonderoga Road. Extensively updated while preserving its iconic design, this courtyard-model Eichler offers the perfect balance of architectural integrity and modern convenience.

Iconic Architecture Reimagined

From the moment you enter through the private courtyard, you’re immersed in the timeless Eichler aesthetic. The central open-air atrium is more than just a design feature—it’s the heart of the home, blurring the line between indoor and outdoor living.

Inside, soaring tongue-and-groove ceilings, post-and-beam construction, and floor-to-ceiling glass walls create a breathtaking sense of openness. Natural light streams through every room, while unobstructed western views of the mountains provide a stunning daily backdrop.

The original brick fireplace serves as a focal point, a warm reminder of the home’s mid-century soul. Authentic globe lighting fixtures mix seamlessly with updated accent lighting, celebrating the past while embracing the present.

Thoughtful Modern Upgrades

While the soul of Eichler design remains intact, the home has been reimagined for today’s lifestyle.

SPC flooring throughout delivers the elegance of hardwood with modern durability.

The kitchen shines with stainless steel appliances, granite finishes, and abundant storage.

A flexible layout includes two primary suites, perfect for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or a dedicated home office.

All three bathrooms have been refreshed with contemporary finishes that complement the clean lines of the original architecture.

This is a home that balances style, function, and heritage in equal measure.

Life in the San Mateo Highlands

Living at 2055 Ticonderoga means being part of one of the most vibrant and architecturally significant neighborhoods in the Bay Area. With more than 700 Eichler homes, the Highlands community is celebrated for its cohesive design, welcoming spirit, and active neighborhood culture.

At the center of it all is the Highlands Recreation Center, featuring:

A large pool and children’s pool

Tennis courts and a modern fitness center

Year-round classes, programs, and community events

Beyond the rec center, residents enjoy direct access to Edgewood Park & Natural Preserve, where hiking and biking trails wind through oak woodlands and open meadows, offering endless opportunities for outdoor adventure.

Schools That Inspire Confidence

The Highlands is known not only for its architecture but also for access to excellent schools within the San Mateo-Foster City School District and San Mateo Union High School District:

Highlands Elementary – a neighborhood school with a strong academic foundation and supportive community.

Borel Middle School – recognized for music, arts, and extracurricular engagement.

Aragon High School – one of California’s top-ranked high schools with robust academic, arts, and athletics programs.

Families consistently cite the educational opportunities as one of the Highlands’ greatest draws.

Why This Home Matters
