About This Home

As of March 2022

The iconic mid-century modern style of a Franklin Lloyd Wright design meets a fresh, contemporary, and light-drenched interior at this spacious and private Orinda sanctuary nestled against a backdrop of lush gardens. Enjoy 2 bonus rooms, plus a seperate 1BD/1BA cottage and artist studio/flex space. A celebration of California’s quintessential indoor/outdoor living, the ultra-private setting also offers multiple vignettes, patios, spa, a courtyard, and spaces ideal for entertaining on every level, quiet reflection, and lots of fun on the lighted pickleball/basketball sports court. Enjoy the attention to detail around every corner of this home that also features hardwood floors, high and coffered ceilings, crown molding, multiple built-ins, Antiqua doors, custom stained glass, some dual pane windows and doors that frame views of nature. Exposed beams made from 600-year-old fir reclaimed from an Italian monastery soar to great heights in the fam room. A hidden gem behind the private gate.
