Fix me up and reep the benefits! Quiet, private lot with panoramic Hill views, and view of downtown Walnut Creek, yet only 10 minutes local street drive to vibrant downtown. Only 5 minutes to the freeway, biking, and hiking trail. Light and bright with plenty of sunlight indoors and large decks for entertaining or just sitting back and relaxing. Remote for garage door is in the kitchen drawer.
