About This Home
Welcome to this fully remodeled single-level mid-century modern masterpiece nestled in the serene foothills of Sleepy Hollow's highly coveted, private, Sandhill neighborhood. Enjoy the elite k-12 public school system that Orinda offers. Sweeping views of the hills and valleys, the sounds of nature, and the beauty of the local flora and fauna allow for an easy path to peace in this unique slice of paradise. Indoor/outdoor mid-century living and entertaining at its best! Floor to ceiling windows and 9 skylights fill the living space with warm natural light. The nearly 4 acre lot offers the owner unparalleled privacy and the opportunity for expansion; plant an orchard or vineyard, or extend the deck and add a pool. (ADU plans provided!) The chef's kitchen is fully equipped with stainless high end appliances including a 48" Sub Zero refrigerator/freezer, a 6-burner professional Wolf range, and quartz countertops. Just 15 feet from the attached garage to the kitchen counter. The remodel left nothing in question; low maintenance hardscaping, new roof and gutters, walls, windows and sliding doors, appliances, Phylrich and Grohe fixtures, decking, siding, kitchen, bathrooms with programmable radiant heated floors, flooring, gas lines, water lines, and a 7-zone HVAC mini-split system.
