Sue Mezzetti has a ritual every time one of her grown children pulls out of the driveway. She walks into the beautiful formal dining room and up to the front window and watches them leave.
She does it because that’s what the previous owner of the house, Eloise Martin, did with her children — and Sue is so grateful that she and her husband, Rob, were able to purchase this house from her 10 years ago, that this is her way of paying homage to those that went before her.
A Waterford chandelier once hung over the dining room table, but she moved it into her bedroom to be inspired each day when she wakes up. Sue, an interior decorator, considers her style eclectic and comfortable.
The couple completely relandscaped the back yard around the pool, adding a hot tub, fireplace and tiki bar. They also remodeled the kitchen opening into a bar area. “I love everything about my home,” Sue said. “I love the fact that the best people in the world trusted in us enough to have it.”
Her home was featured in the Rose Garden Homes Tour in October. Floral arrangements on the dining room table by Green Designs on The Alameda in San Jose.
