A brick walkway descends from the road to the courtyard outside the front door. Along the way enjoy the garden’s mature foliage: a towering white oak, a dogwood, and a Japanese maple, surrounded by azaleas, camellias, and rhododendrons. Enter to a spacious foyer that leads to the 300-square-foot living room, with a wood-paneled ceiling above, parquet hardwoods below, a wood-burning fireplace, and outside deck access. After entertaining guests there with an aperitif, move for dinner to the spacious dining room, with views on three sides. That room is served by the well-appointed kitchen alongside, with Miele, Sub-Zero and other top appliances, granite counters, custom cabinetry, and oak hardwoods. Kitchen chores are hardly chores at all, as one works at the sink with views through four oversized window panels (collectively, about 45 square feet in size) surveying the outside flora alongside the brick walkway. The window panels extend overhead to add about 20 square feet of skylight. The principal suite and another large bedroom also are found on the main floor, each with an en-suite bathroom. Both have ample closet space; the principal suite has two walk-in closets. The two other bedrooms are found downstairs, along with a 450-square-foot family/rec room (with fireplace). That huge room leads outside to a covered deck and down to the beautiful swimming pool (resurfaced in 2020), and the bathroom and outdoor shower that sit adjacent. Work or study from home in the spacious office on the main floor, with deck access and views of the mature surrounding trees. Parking is easy in the three-car garage, on the driveway, and on the cul-de-sac above. For safety, the home’s roof was replaced in 2012 with Eaglelite Ponderosa concrete tiles, and the fully equipped Contra Costa Fire District station is just down the hill. So, too, are Lafayette’s restaurants and shopping, all just minutes away.
