Property Description
This home's design affords stunning views over Orinda Country Club Golf Course, across to the San Pablo Upper Reservoir and out in the distance to Mt. Diablo. Unique, contemporary, and custom built from the ground up in 1997, with just 1 owner. Meticulously maintained, the new owner can move right in without a worry. It features an elegant living room flanked by large windows with a fireplace. A 1/2 bath is perfectly located for guests. Dine outdoors year round under a covered, lighted, patio and BBQ area. A 2nd set of French doors opens off the family room/kitchen area where you'll find a large sitting area, perfect for relaxing and watching the sunset. Large sky lights cascade natural light into several living areas of the home. The Primary Bedroom was enlarged by the owners to create a sitting area for reading or watching TV. The large ensuite owner's bathroom has 2 custom-designed walk-in closets, a soaking tub, double vanity, and separate toilet room. On the same level, just down the hall, you'll find 2 additional beautiful guest bedrooms and a full bath with access to the upper yard. A half level down is a newly updated office you'll never want to leave when you see its views. This also serves as a 4th bedroom. All interior doors feature Baldwin hardware. The home has custom window shades, cherry hardwood floors, and recess lighting. There's storage galore, a rarity in Orinda. The well designed kitchen offers quartz counter bar seating, double ovens, an under-mount sink, and a walk-in pantry closet with custom glass shelving. Just beyond is a separate laundry area with full capacity W/D, a plethora of cabinetry and a large finished storage area. The home is very private. The hardscape walls and flagstone paths are completed with drainage, landscaped beds with irrigation, landscape lighting and specimen trees that draw magical bird life. The attached 2 car garage is fully finished with epoxy floors, storage, lighting, and a surround of built-in cabinets. Equipped with fire suppression sprinklers, a Moen Pro Device, Ring perimeter cameras, and dual AC units. A rare opportunity, available for the first time in 29 years. This prime location is just minutes to downtown with proximity to Wagner Ranch Elementary, the bus stop, pool clubs, Orinda Community Park & Library, Farmer's Market. Hyw 24, and BART. Top rated public schools, Orinda Intermediate School & Miramonte HS.
