Spectacular views and an easy walk to town distinguish this spacious property. The home was rebuilt from the studs in 2012. Inside, the centerpiece of life surely will be the immense kitchen, leading to an even-more-spacious family room. Skylights and recessed lighting brighten the kitchen, and cooking will be a joy using Wolf and SubZero appliances. An oversized marble island separates the kitchen and family room, which offers exceptional views of the hillsides separating Orinda from Berkeley/Oakland. An adjoining 325-sq.-ft. deck provides the ideal place to grill or enjoy wine at twilight, as wisps of fog hang over the distant hills. Nearby, the bookshelf-lined living room has a wood-burning fireplace to ward off winter chill, and the formal dining room will accommodate a large dinner party. The primary suite sits at the other side of the main level, with a spacious bathroom featuring an oversized shower and elite fixtures. Dual walk-in closets and a comfortable dressing room sit adjacent. A second large bedroom also is on the main floor. Three other bedrooms, and a recreation/playroom, lie downstairs. Newly refinished red oak hardwoods cover the home throughout. Outside, the manicured gardens enjoy the afternoon sunshine. This home exemplifies the best of Orinda life.
