Property Description

Restored Retreat in the Heart of Orinda! Nestled in one of the East Bay's most desirable neighborhoods, this move-in-ready hillside home blends clean architectural lines with warm natural finishes across 2,164 square feet of restored living space. A gable-front facade with crisp white siding is framed by terraced, drought-tolerant landscaping, boulder retaining walls, and a winding paved drive leading to a covered carport. The light-filled interior offers 5 bedrooms (one ideal as a dedicated office) and 2 full bathrooms. Oversized windows flood the home with natural light while framing the wooded canyon beyond, and the inviting living room centers on a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace with a wood mantel, set off by gorgeous hardwood floors. The dining area flows effortlessly into the fully updated kitchen, featuring new quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a charming breakfast nook. The primary bathroom impresses with a marble-topped double vanity, zellige-style tile, a glass-enclosed rain shower, and a freestanding soaking tub beneath a skylight. Bedrooms throughout offer generous proportions and leafy views. Outside, a spacious deck delivers sweeping views over the treetops and surrounding hills — an ideal spot to unwind. Combining thoughtful updates with a peaceful yet convenient location just minutes from downtown Orinda, BART, Highway 24, and top-rated schools, this spectacular property is ready for its next owner.
