Property is move-in ready.
Built in 1990, this property is in move-in ready condition with high-end finishes that suggest significant maintenance and selective updates. The kitchen is a standout feature with professional-grade appliances, a vaulted ceiling with a large skylight, and a designer aesthetic. The home features luxury materials such as hardwood floors, wool carpeting, and a floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace. While some styling elements and the 1990 build date place it outside the 'excellent' category, the lack of deferred maintenance and the high quality of the existing systems and fixtures firmly support a 'good' rating.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 20020, living area = 4055.
Elementary School: Sleepy Hollow Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Orinda Intermediate School (9/10). High School: Miramonte High School (10/10).
Situated in the elite Orinda Country Club neighborhood, the property offers access to top-tier education with school ratings ranging from 9 to 10, including the renowned Miramonte High School.
Constructed in 1990, the home may soon require significant capital improvements to major mechanical systems, roofing, or insulation to align with modern energy efficiency standards.
While the nearly half-acre lot provides privacy and lush landscaping, the hillside setting typical of the area may limit the availability of flat, functional yard space for traditional outdoor recreation.
Nestled in the prestigious Orinda Country Club neighborhood & near the popular Orindawoods community, this beautifully appointed home is a serene retreat with stunning views of the surrounding hills. As you enter, you’re welcomed by soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and a mix of rich hardwood floors and wool carpeting that immediately set a tone of understated luxury. Rich wood doors and millwork lend character and warmth throughout the home. A dream kitchen straight out of a Nancy Meyers movie sets the tone for this home’s heart and soul. Bathed in natural light pouring through a vaulted ceiling and dramatic skylight, the space is as charming as it is practical—a chef’s delight— equipped with professional-appliances and plenty of room to create. Just off the kitchen, the family room invites relaxation with its floor-to-ceiling rock fireplace and direct access to the backyard. A few steps away, an elevated pub-style bar offers a handsome setting for entertaining. A room meant for gathering—the formal dining room is a showstopper, with 17' ceilings and dramatic picture windows that flood the space with natural light. Outside, the grounds feel lush and alive. Mature vegetation surrounds you—citrus trees, hydrangeas, roses, and more—framing every path and corner in green.
