The story
Tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac in coveted Glorietta, this home offers a rare combination of privacy and convenience. Surrounded by mature trees, the property feels like a tranquil retreat, yet is just a half mile to Glorietta School and less than 2 miles to Orinda BART and downtown Lafayette. A brick courtyard leads to the entry foyer and the expansive open-concept living/dining room. Spanning nearly 600 sq ft, the space features soaring beamed ceilings with recessed lighting, hardwood floors, and a striking 2-sided fireplace that warms both the living room and outdoor terrace. Windows frame serene views of the trees and the hillside beyond. The kitchen features granite countertops, a Wolf oven, microwave, and warming drawer, Bosch refrigerator, and breakfast nook. The 334-sq-ft primary suite offers a walk-in closet, convenient laundry, and an en-suite bath featuring a soaking tub and shower. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms and another full bath provide comfortable accommodations, including one especially spacious 272-sq-ft bedroom. A flexible living area or bedroom offers additional space for everyday living or entertaining, while a covered patio and quiet garden courtyard enhance the home’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle. It’s a rare blend of natural beauty, privacy, quality finishes, and everyday convenience.
