Property Description

Privately situated place up where the views are gorgeous, this single-level 4-bedroom, 3-full-bathroom home measuring 2,420 sq ft is special. With 1.28 acres of land, there is room to expand or add an ADU. The home has been lovingly cared for by an Orinda family for 50 + years. Architecturally unique, it lends itself to a mid-century modern feel. Walls of large windows offer striking views of the verdant Berkeley hills from the living room, dining room, kitchen, and bedrooms, and flood the home with natural light. Multiple large glass sliding doors allow for easy indoor - outdoor living. Dine, entertain friends or relax on the expansive deck. There's also an oversized garage with a storage room; the perfect spot for bikes, skis, or golf clubs. The possibilities to modernize this gem are endless, and it's just waiting for the next lucky homeowner. Proximity to HWY 24, Orinda Library, Orinda Community Center, and BART. Saturday Farmer's Market. Easy access to both Lafayette and downtown Orinda. Ride the yellow school bus to fantastic public schools. Acalanes School District.
