About This Home

As of March 2026

There are homes you tour... and then there are homes you fall in love with the moment you arrive. 151 Montecito Crescent invites you to slow down and truly enjoy where you live. Surrounded by mature oak trees and professionally curated landscaping, this 4 bedroom, 3 bath residence with an ADU blends comfort, flexibility and thoughtful updates; including a brand-new roof. The backyard feels like a private orchard with Apricot, Fig, Meyer Lemon, Tangerine, Pomegranate and Plum trees, complemented by Rosemary, Thyme, Mint and sculptural succulents. It’s a space designed for gathering, gardening or quiet mornings with Mt. Diablo glowing in the distance. Inside, the updated kitchen and baths offer a refined yet welcoming feel. The flowing layout provides room to host, work or unwind, while the ADU and separate downstairs living area with full bath create ideal flexibility for guests, multigenerational living or creative space. Residents enjoy access to a community pool on warm summer nights, nearby Acalanes Ridge hiking trails and you are just minutes to downtown Walnut Creek shopping and dining. This is more than a home. It’s views at sunset, citrus from your garden and space to grow with a neighborhood that balances nature and connection beautifully. Welcome to 151 Montecito Crescent.
