Situated on an idyllic lane in the beloved Sleepy Hollow neighborhood, this quintessential Orinda home exudes classic charm paired with elegant, modern updates. From the moment you step inside, the home embraces you with warmth and character. The vaulted ceilings create a sense of space and openness throughout, while the double French doors invite an abundance of natural light, illuminating the beautiful hardwood floors. The heart of the home is the great room with its seamlessly integrated kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room—anchored by the central island, soaring ceilings and French doors that invite effortless indoor-outdoor living. The park-like private backyard sanctuary with its many intimate seating areas beckon people to gather. The vegetable garden and citrus trees provide sustainable fresh produce, while the elegant English garden adds a touch of classic beauty to the landscape. This is more than a home; it is a lifestyle designed for both connection and retreat. Enjoy a peaceful morning coffee in the warmth of the sun-drenched breakfast nook, intimate dinners in the formal dining room, chats around the fire pit under the stars, and large outdoor gatherings and games on the lower-level lawn, all while being serenaded by the symphony of nature. Welcome home!
