About this home
Single Family · Built 1959
Up the hill and around the bend, this mid-century gem is waiting for you to make your own. Enjoy being minutes away from downtown Orinda but feel like you are worlds away. Offering privacy and ever sought after single-level living, with floor to ceiling windows across the entire back side of the home showcasing expansive views of the Briones reservoir. Vintage details include original redwood siding and interior walls, cement flooring, and radiant heat. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms line the front of the house, with the primary bedroom enjoying outdoor access and peek-a-boo views. Downstairs unfinished basement area was once a functioning home office, featuring multiple glass sliding doors and windows. It now begs to be converted back into usable living space. Take the scenic route over the hill into Berkeley, or quickly access highway 24 from town. Close to 13 years of award-winning schools. Welcome Home!
