Welcome home to this gorgeous Orinda property nestled in the hills, enveloped by privacy and surrounded by the beauty of nature. As part of the prestigious Glorietta neighborhood, this two-story home is situated on .54 acres. It has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths on the first floor, an amazing 2nd level, an additional bedroom, a full bath, and a huge bonus room. The versatile space can also be used as a teenager hangout, a child’s play area, or an exercise room - endless possibilities!
The outdoor space of this residence is serene and breathtaking. Nestled in the hills of Orinda, the landscaped backyard offers multiple decks for entertaining. The lush vegetation cared for meticulously over the years provides ultimate privacy and charm. The large deck directly outside the kitchen makes indoor and outdoor living easy and has a pergola for enjoying those sunny days. Create an outdoor living and dining space on one of the large decks and bask in the shade of the mature trees. Savor the sounds of the small creek as you soak in your private oasis.
Inside the home's main floor, the bright, airy entryway greets you with high ceilings and fresh paint. Look out to the living room, with a wall of windows that let in the bright natural light and offer views of the spectacular outdoors. The brick fireplace in the living room goes through to the other side of the family room, so you can enjoy a cozy winter’s night from either room. The spacious dining room is to the right, perfect for family gatherings and celebrations.
The kitchen is well-equipped with a peninsula, tons of counter space, and additional seating. The double oven is essential for hosting holidays and is a game changer for cooking for a crowd. Enjoy the ample eat-in area of the kitchen, which can accommodate a kitchen table and is connected to the outdoor patio for easy al fresco dining and enjoying the warm Orinda summer evenings.
The primary retreat is exceptionally spacious, with an ensuite bathroom and a half bath. There is also a Japanese soaking tub and a large shower. The walk-in closet is big enough for even the most enthusiastic fashionista, with built-in organizers and closet rods already set up. The second full bathroom has double sinks and a separate area for the shower and toilet to make sharing the space a breeze.
This home has so many hidden treasures and surprises at every corner. In addition to the attached two-car garage, there is another very substantial storage shed, which perfectly matches the look of the home. This shed can be used as a workshop or for storing a boat, ATVs, or anything else that needs to be covered. It would be a great place to store children’s toys, bikes, sports gear, or seasonal decorations. Storage is always at a premium, especially for growing families, and this home supplies storage galore. There is even an additional tool shed in the backyard.
This property is the ultimate family home for the young or young at heart. With a highly functional living space, as well as the bonus 2nd level, this home has it all, with ample room to grow. Feel like you have escaped the hustle and bustle of the world in your own exclusive paradise nestled within the hills of Orinda. Yet this exclusive Glorietta neighborhood is just minutes to the shops and dining in downtown Orinda, as well as the BART station and 680/ 24 freeways, and is part of the exclusive Orinda and Acalanes school districts. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to call Orinda home!
