About This Home
As of June 2023You’re not going to want to miss this one! This sprawling, single-story rancher is located in one of the most convenient neighborhoods of Orinda & has spectacular vista views. As you enter the home, you’re immediately drawn to the incredible “great” room w/ high ceilings, skylights & walls of windows, allowing an abundance of natural light to enter the room. The open kitchen, family room & breakfast nook is where the family & guests will gather! The sliding doors to the backyard are a seamless transition to the outside making indoor/outdoor entertaining a breeze. Remodeled in 2008 by Brovelli Construction, the kitchen has stainless steel appliances & custom cabinetry. The living room & dining room allow for more formal gatherings or a quiet place away from the television. The 4th bedroom would be an ideal space for an au-pair or office. What really sets this home apart from all others is the magnificent backyard w/a large flat grassy area for gardening & play, a patio & large deck for entertaining & alfresco dining, plus a hot tub for peaceful relaxation amongst the heritage oaks. This is a “walk-the-dog” neighborhood located less than a mile to Orinda’s Theater Square. Just minutes to Lafayette, Hwy 24 & BART, you’ll love this house & this neighborhood!
