About This Home

Natural beauty, privacy and serenity abound in this elegant 4BD/2.5BA Mid-century in Orinda. Set on over 1⁄2 of an acre, this 2536 SQFT home was designed by Richard Danskin, a renowned Orinda architect. Timeless architectural details integrate nature with the home including vaulted and beamed redwood ceilings, skylights, and walls of windows that showcase the peaceful surroundings. In the great room, sliding doors open onto the expansive wrap-around deck, providing seamless indoor/outdoor living that overlooks an oak grove. With an abundance of natural light from the windows adjoining the kitchen and dining room, enjoy hillside views as the backdrop to your daily life. The adjacent den is a place to relax with family and friends in front of a fireplace. The upper floor features two bedrooms - one with an ensuite bath and the other is flexible as a guest room, office, or playroom. The floor is complete with a powder room and plenty of storage. Downstairs find two more large sunny bedrooms, a full bath, a balcony, laundry, and more storage. The two-car garage and nearby BART make for an easy commute, and down the road, enjoy top K-12 schools, beautiful Lafayette reservoir with its trails and boating, plus shopping, dining, and amenities in downtown Orinda and Lafayette.
