About This Home

As of March 2021

Looking for a place to get out of the city and escape to the serene semi-rural setting of Orinda? The custom-built Lost Valley Estates home sits on half an acre adjacent to open space views of the Moraga Valley. Expanded from its original floor plan, it has 5 bedrooms, 3-1/2 baths (tax records are incorrect), and 4200+sf. The upper level has the primary suite, formal dining room, living room, family room and an eat-in kitchen with a walk-in pantry. Also on the upper level are a patio and a deck on opposite sides of the home, perfect places to start your day with a beautiful sunrise and a cup of coffee, or relax in the evening with a peaceful sunset. Downstairs are 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a laundry room and an amazing mud room. The 5th bedroom is currently used as a media room. Great location in the scenic and romantic Lost Valley plus 12 years of top-rated Orinda schools!
