Tucked into coveted Happy Valley Glen, this single-level residence offers the best of both worlds: private, crafted living in a walkable Lafayette neighborhood. Set on a landscaped, mostly-level .59-acre lot near top-rated Happy Valley Elementary, this architecturally reimagined 4BD/3.5BA residence offers approx. 4,511 SF of comfort. A custom Berkeley Mills redwood entry sequence–gates, fencing, trellis, and front door with Dorothy Lenehan glass panels–creates a memorable sense of arrival. Inside, quarter-sawn hardwood floors, stone/marble tile in guest baths, two fireplaces, and a chef’s kitchen with Wolf, Viking, Miele, Sub-Zero and Best continue the home’s elegance. Control4 A/V adds modern ease, while the poolside 4th bedroom/great room opens through custom Berkeley Mills fully retractable wood doors and screens to create seamless indoor-outdoor living. The 2018 Lafayette Garden Show-featured grounds include a saltwater pool/spa, lawn, outdoor shower/half bath, raised beds, fruit trees, stone terraces, fire pit, BBQ, landscape lighting, mud sink, and firewood structure. Highlights include carport, 2-car garage with workshop, built-in cabinetry, dual vertical Sub-Zero wine units and fridge. Heated/cooled two-story bonus structure, smart pool controls, Bay Alarm/Nest/LTS security, and generator.
