About This Home
As of August 2021Orinda cottage in the woods on a .45 acre lot surrounded by native oak and redwood trees. Superb location just up the hill from Theater Square and BART yet the privacy and solitude make it seem like you’re miles away. Up a gated driveway you’ll find this 1941-built home, a throwback to Orinda history, with beautiful living room featuring vintage redwood walls and ceiling, a brick fireplace, and original hardwood floors. You’ll love the storybook charm of the fully-fenced brick back patio and the front porch with Orinda hills views. Modern updates include newer windows, tankless water heater, and newer furnace and a/c. Don’t miss the office/ ADU-type building around the side – a perfect work from home spot.
