Local Developer Bo Thorenfeldt has quietly built a portfolio of some of Hillsborough's finest new constructions over the last 15 years. The home at 910 Link Road is no exception. Built new in 2009, the French-inspired design with outdoor resort amenities was listed on July 12 for $8,200,000 and quickly went into contract with multiple offers, and a fast close of July 23. The home last traded new in October 2009 for $5,285,000. Last year I closed one of Thorenfeldt's newest creations, an 8,500 ft. modern farmhouse within a 2 minute walk of Crocker School, $14,100,000. He has a penchant for woodwork details, grand entries, and vast open great rooms with garden connections. A Thorenfeldt signature touch, or idiosyncrasy, depending on your opinion, is the placement of the refrigerators: they are usually found just outside the actual kitchen in a separate pantry, so as to increase counter space and flow of the kitchen itself. Other Thorenfeldt examples in Hillsborough include 35 Grevillea Court, 2335 Oakdale, 515 Craig, and 1600 Kingswood.

910 Link Road was listed as 6,403 sq. ft. on a .76 acre lot. The opulent indoor/outdoor design embodies the recreational amenities Covid SIP buyers are seeking the most right now: extensive party terraces, outdoor kitchen, pool, putting green, fire pit, bocce ball...plenty of bling for the summer staycation. Link Road is a perfect example of the Mid South neighborhood: assigned to South School, elevated slightly in the hills above Lower South, and surrounded by large estates along twists and turns. The eight million range for Hillsborough real estate has been fertile lately, as you will recall from HillsboroughBlog.com the recent multiple offer scenario at 720 Eucalyptus that was listed at $8,195,000 and sold for $8,850,000 in Lower North Hillsborough.
