About this property

Thoughtfully updated classic hillside terrace home nestled on a deep, private lot with designer qualities offering warmth and traditional character. Enjoy a peaceful setting just minutes from downtown Lafayette and Walnut Creek, with access to highly regarded schools. Tasteful designer upgrades create a welcoming, move-in-ready home, highlighted by two charming Birds-Nest'' retreats. The first is a custom built-in window seat in the great room, complete with generous storage drawers and elevated views of the mature, natural surroundings above the front yard and street. Ideally situated beside the main living area, this cozy perch offers a special place to relax. A wood-burning fireplace adds warmth, while the open floor plan flows seamlessly into the kitchen, featuring solid granite countertops, custom soft-close cabinetry, illuminated glass-front cabinets, crystal and metal hardware, a farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances. Hardwood flooring extends throughout the main living area and front bedrooms. A family/media room connects to a flexible space currently used as a laundry and art room, with potential for conversion to an additional bedroom or office space. Up a short flight of stairs, the second Birds-Nest'' retreat awaits: a private primary suite with an ensuite bath and tranquil views of the park-like backyard. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with travertine and marble countertop finishes. The hall bath features a classic clawfoot tub and porcelain tile, while the primary bath offers a recently remodeled shower with subway tile and traditional fixtures. The sliding glass door off the family room opens to a unique and naturally landscaped backyard. A distinctive cobblestone patio, featuring authentic stones originally from the streets of San Francisco, leads to a three-hole putting green and a spacious deck with an adjoining waterscape feature surrounded by the landscape with an assortment of mature trees. A concrete walkway provides convenient access to the lower lawn area, garage and level-in driveway. The detached garage offers possibilities, including a potential ADU conversion for guest accommodations, rental income, or multigenerational living (buyer to verify). Combining privacy, character, thoughtful updates, versatile living spaces, and an exceptional location, this distinctive property offers a wonderful opportunity to experience the best of Lafayette living.
