About This Home
As of April 2025Welcome home to 196 Wilkie Drive, a beautifully updated mid-century gem in Walnut Creek’s desirable Lakewood neighborhood, just a block from the scenic Shell Ridge Open Space trailhead. With $85,000 in recent upgrades, this home features an open floor plan, refinished and new wood flooring, updated bathrooms, fresh interior paint, new lighting, hardware, and baseboards throughout. Enter through the new front door into a warm and inviting living room, where a brick fireplace anchors the space. A spacious bonus room off the kitchen offers endless possibilities, while a large, undeveloped side yard presents exciting expansion potential. The peaceful corner lot is a serene retreat, complete with a lush garden, vibrant blooms, a mature lemon tree, and a partially new perimeter fence. Ideally located off Ygnacio Valley Rd, near the popular Indian Valley Swim Club, and just minutes from downtown Walnut Creek, with easy access to Heather Farms, John Muir Medical Center, BART, and The Ultimate Fieldhouse. An excellent blend of character, style, and convenience!
