Wonderful opportunity to build your dream home on this .85 acre very private lot in Burton Valley. The future driveway is well defined as well as 2 cut areas for a home and possible guest house. Utilities are at the street. Peaceful views, spectacular sunsets & an incredible setting - and all just minutes away from swim/tennis club, top rated schools, Downtown Lafayette & Walnut Creek and BART/24/680.
Burton Valley, located between Pleasant Hill Road and Mt. Diablo Boulevard, is a residential and park-oriented Lafayette neighborhood with a low-slung ranch-home streetscape and a wide-open, trail-linked feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Burton Valley Elementary School campus and the adjacent Lafayette Community Garden, where morning drop-offs and weekend garden plots set the tempo. Mid-century ranch houses, generous setbacks, and mature trees shape the blocks, while the Lafayette-Moraga Regional Trail adds a steady stream of walkers and cyclists. Community touchstones nearby include the Lafayette Library and Learning Center, Town Hall Theatre, and the Lafayette Art Gallery. The landscape reads as gently rolling, with Mt. Diablo views appearing at the ends of quieter streets. Cafes and small shops cluster a short drive away along Mt. Diablo Boulevard, keeping daily errands in a classic downtown strip.
