About This Home

As of April 2025

Welcome to 38 Hillcrest Drive, a stunning single-level home in the heart of Glorietta. Completely transformed with impeccable craftsmanship, it features a standing-seam steel roof, 9” European white oak flooring, Anderson windows and doors, custom cabinetry, and state-of-the-art kitchen appliances. Flooded with natural light, the home seamlessly connects to a beautifully designed backyard with a hardscape lounge and dining area, a lush lawn, raised garden beds, and a play area with a play structure and trampoline. The open-concept eat-in kitchen flows into the spacious living and dining areas, featuring a Wolf gas cooktop, Bosch drawer microwave, and Kitchenaid double ovens and dishwasher. Ideally located moments from Glorietta Elementary, Meadow Swim and Tennis Club, and the Lafayette Reservoir rim trail, with easy access to downtown Orinda and Lafayette, this thoughtfully renovated home is a rare find. Welcome home!
