Mid-Century Modern with a twist! This home has it all with walls of windows, views and a level area with a play structure. The natural light and room for everyone is perfect to shelter in place. The gourmet kitchen features a large island, newer stainless steel appliances (including Wolf range) and an open floor plan to the dining and living rooms. The primary suite is on the main level with walls of windows, ensuite bathroom with heated floors, dual-sink vanity and full walk-in closet. Head downstairs to find 4 additional bedrooms, a family room, remodeled split bathroom, play area with two additional work/study spaces. The backyard is full of surprises with a play structure, large synthetic grass area, oversized decks and a flat patio/play area off the kitchen. Oh, and when the power goes out, no worry: there's a full-house generator at the ready. New roof in 2020 as well. 46 El Gavilan has it all: close to Highway 24, BART and award-winning Orinda public schools.
