Midcentury Beauty on Impressive 1.3 Acre Lot

Searching for a stunning property with privacy and charm? You’ll find it all here. Situated on 1.3 acres in Lafayette, the entrance to this beautiful midcentury home is down a curved private driveway. This dramatic residence was custom-designed by Bay Area architect William Kirk. Recently refinished hardwood floors, redwood walls and light colored flagstone masonry bring natural elements to the open floor plan. Huge windows and a grand fireplace in the living room showcase the magnificent backyard with azaleas, camellias and majestic oak, pine and redwood trees. Designed with two wings off the main living space, the second wing is perfect for a home studio or private guest quarters. The master suite has its own sliding door that opens to a private second patio and a luxurious midcentury en-suite bath with built-in wardrobe. Nestled in a private setting, this lovely home is surprisingly close to shopping,  transportation, Briones Regional Park, and all the best of Lafayette.

LIVING ROOM:  Truly impressive space with floor to ceiling windows, a grand fireplace, open-beam ceiling and beautiful wood floors and paneling. This is a room that no one will forget! 

DINING / FAMILY ROOM:  Enjoy dining overlooking the lush back yard. This generous living space features a built-in lighted buffet on one side and built-in shelves on the other. 

KITCHEN:  Simple, elegantly functional kitchen with tile floor, black counters and light wood cabinets. Ceramic glass range, double ovens, breakfast bar and plenty of counter space.

MASTER BEDROOM RETREAT:  The spacious master features beautiful hardwood floors, mirrored closet doors and a wall of windows with a sliding glass door to the patio. The classic built-in wardrobe brings clean lines and functionality to the en-suite bath. 

OUTDOOR LIVING SPACE:  The magnificent 1.3-acre lot is shaded by mature oak and pine trees, beautiful rhododendrons, camellias and Japanese maples. An aggregate patio and spacious lawn area provide a wonderful place to relax and entertain. On the far end of the patio is a workshop with storage and built-in workbench. The property continues beyond providing privacy and potential creative uses as desired, possible horse property per owner.
