A rare custom garden estate in Wilder, 16 Rabble Road pairs Mediterranean-inspired architecture, extraordinary grounds, panoramic views, and exceptional multigenerational living on approximately .62 acres. Offering 4,725± sq. ft. and 5 ensuite bedrooms, this is a home designed to feel as special outdoors as it does within. Enter through a private courtyard where an enchanting garden unfolds alongside the residence, featuring an extraordinary collection of English heirloom roses, flowering gardens, and an abundant orchard of fruit trees, berries, and grapevines. A fountain, pergola, and sunken hot tub create a magical setting for dining, entertaining, and evenings under the stars. Inside, warm hardwood floors lead to an expansive great room framed by panoramic views. The chef’s kitchen features Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, quartzite island, walk-in pantry, and built-in banquette seating, while the adjoining living room is anchored by a fireplace. Four sets of glass French doors open the main living spaces to the view terrace, creating effortless indoor-outdoor living. A separate rumpus room with private courtyard entrance and fireplace offers a beautiful office, media room, or potential 6th bedroom. Upstairs, the impressive primary retreat features French doors to a Juliet balcony, a spa-like bath with freestanding soaking tub, separate vanities, oversized shower, and custom walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms are also ensuite. The lower level is a standout: a complete second living space with full kitchen, living room, outdoor access, and two ensuite bedrooms, including one nearly primary-sized—an exceptional setup for parents, extended family, guests, or older children. Set along an intimate street of custom residences, 16 Rabble offers the best of Wilder living with community swimming and fitness amenities, miles of scenic trails and open space, sports fields, neighborhood gatherings, and top-rated Orinda schools—all just minutes from downtown Orinda, BART, and Highway 24.

Wilder, located between Camino Pablo and Bear Creek Road, is a master-planned and hillside Orinda neighborhood with a golf course setting and trail-laced open space. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Orinda Country Club clubhouse, where fairways, practice greens, and a low-key social calendar set the daily rhythm. Streets feature newer, Mediterranean-influenced homes and townhomes with tidy landscaping and garage-forward facades. Sidewalks and greenbelts connect to the Wilder Sports Park and nearby trailheads for walks and rides. The terrain shifts from broad valley views to oak-dotted slopes, giving many blocks a quiet, tucked-away feel. A short drive leads to Orinda’s small downtown for coffee, books, and a movie night.

PD
Planned Development District
The specific purposes of the PD planned development district are to: Establish a procedure for the development of large parcels of land in both residential areas and downtown in order to reduce or eliminate the rigidity, delay and inequity that otherwise would result from application of zoning standards and procedures designed primarily for small parcels; Ensure orderly and thorough planning and review procedures that will result in quality design and the creation, improvement and preservation of common open space; Encourage design variety and avoid monotony in large developments by allowing greater freedom in selecting the means to provide access, light, open space and amenity; Provide for flexibility, consistent with the general plan, in the application of certain land use and development regulations found in base districts, such as minimum lot size, lot width or depth, and building Setbacks or heights, to take advantage of unique land use or site characteristics and to preserve unique or significant environmental features, including viewsheds, undisturbed hillsides and ridgelines and wildlife habitat; Encourage the preservation of serviceable existing structures of historic value or artistic merit by providing the opportunity to use them imaginatively for purposes other than that for which they were originally intended; Provide for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare by allowing flexibility in site design and improvement to either avoid or remedy areas subject to hazard, including steep slopes, unstable soil conditions and lands subject to flooding; Allow for the use of the planned development zone only where there is a clear, defined benefit to the citizens of Orinda when contrasted with development options of a different base zone for the subject property. The planned development zone shall not be used as a means to enhance development potential of lands which otherwise may not be able to be developed.
