This gorgeous, unique, contemporary home was custom-built from the ground up in 1997. With just one owner calling it home in 1998. It has been meticulously maintained over the years. The 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 Mount Diablo.
Off the entry is a pretty living room flanked by large windows; a perfect spot to read a book, entertain, or enjoy a roaring fire in winter. There is a half bathroom for guests. Off the dining area, you can access French doors that open to a covered, lighted dining patio and barbecue area used year- round. Another set of French doors opens off the family room where you’ll find a large sitting area to relax and watch a full moon rise over Mount Diablo or watch the sunset. Large skylights 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 television. The large ensuite owner’s bathroom has two 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 two additional beautiful guest bedrooms and a full bathroom.
A half level down is a newly updated office you’ll never want to leave when you see its views. This can also be used as a fourth bedroom. All interior doors feature Baldwin hardware. The home has custom window shades, cherry hardwood floors, and recessed lighting throughout. There’s storage galore, which is a rarity in Orinda.
The well-designed kitchen offers quartz counter bar seating, double ovens, an under-mount sink, soft-close drawers, and a large pantry closet. Just beyond is a separate laundry area with a full-capacity washer and dryer, a plethora of cabinetry, and a large finished storage area.
The home is very private. The hardscape walls and paths are completed with drainage, landscaped bedrooms with irrigation, landscape lighting, and specimen trees that draw magical bird life.
The attached two-car garage is fully finished with epoxy floors, storage, lighting, and a surround of built-in cabinets. The home is equipped with fire suppression sprinklers, a Moen Pro Device, Ring exterior perimeter cameras, and dual air conditioning 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, Orinda Community Park and Library, and The Farmer’s Market. Highway 24 and BART. Public top-rated schools K-12.
