This stunning home and retreat nestled serenely among nature's splendor was recently featured on the cover of Home Folio magazine. This property provides a rare opportunity for someone seeking a gorgeous private retreat with nearby accessibility to shopping and downtown. From Tice Valley Boulevard, turn onto one of the most distinguished story book roads this coveted Tice Valley neighborhood has to offer. It's no wonder the newly paved Castle Hill Ranch Road romanced in willowy evergreens and colorful foliage boasts myriad multi-million dollar properties. From the inviting and sprawling driveway, come tour this gorgeous light filled and tastefully updated home with a FULL 1/1 detached ~711+ SF ADU (rented for just under $3K and currently vacant) and 5-Star Resort style backyard w/ pool & flex space studio! Like a photo which cannot capture the moment, you must come to appreciate.
Short drive from Walnut Creek but you feel like you are vacationing in Tahoe. Very private home with a 700 square-foot ADU. Amazing backyard with pool. Every entertainers dream.

There are hardwood floors and dual pane windows throughout most of the home. The primary bedroom is on the main floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. The park-like backyard has a nice patio area overlooking the beautiful pool. Many trees...
provide some privacy.
