Property Description
A remarkable value in Orinda, this gated estate captures sweeping views of the surrounding hills and offers an exceptional blend of privacy, sophistication, and convenience. Nestled at the end of a quiet court, the home enjoys close proximity to town, top-rated schools, and major commute routes while maintaining a serene, secluded atmosphere. Recently refreshed, the 4,579 sq ft residence features a versatile, light-filled floorplan designed for both gracious entertaining and comfortable everyday living. A dramatic foyer sets the tone, opening to an elegant living room with soaring ceilings, a stately fireplace, hillside vistas, and direct access to the sunroom. The generous dining room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, where custom-color cabinetry, quartz countertops, a crisp white tile backsplash, and a well-appointed butler’s pantry create a beautiful and functional culinary space. The main level hosts the tranquil primary suite along with two additional bedrooms and a full bath. On the lower level, a spacious family room with a fireplace and direct access to the backyard offers an inviting retreat for gatherings, play, or relaxation. The expansive grounds provide multiple outdoor venues: a lush lawn, areas ideal for a play structure or trampoline, charming gazebos for lounging, space for gardening, and panoramic views that frame the property in natural beauty. Welcome to Orinda—an exceptionally desirable community celebrated for its award-winning schools, abundant open space, and enduring natural charm.
