This Arbor View Lane home is aptly named; one enters the property through a locked gate up a private drive to the residence, beautifully positioned among mature oaks, redwoods, and rolling hillsides. Views unfold from every side of the home, creating a rare sense of privacy and connection to nature. Enter into the foyer, with an office (with garden views) to the right; the great room, the home’s centerpiece, sits to the left. Anchored by a fireplace, the space is filled with natural light through expansive windows that frame hillside views. The great room flows seamlessly into the dining room, which comfortably accommodates eight guests and opens to a glass-enclosed deck overlooking the surrounding hillsides. Artistic tile complements the dining room’s buffet. The adjacent kitchen features generous counter space, a large center island, seating for three at the breakfast bar, and elite appliances. Distinctive hardwood flooring extends throughout much of the home, while artistic chandeliers provide dramatic lighting, particularly above the glass-railed stairway that descends from the main level. Below, elevated ceilings enhance the sense of space. The playroom/media room there commands additional hillside views and provides direct access to the grassy play area beyond. The home offers four bedrooms and four and one-half bathrooms, and 3,897 square feet on a .59-acre lot. The principal suite is found on the main level. It is a peaceful retreat with an adjacent deck overlooking mature oaks and distant hillsides. The spa-inspired bathroom offers a soaking tub, separate shower, and abundant natural light. The spacious closet is ready to be customized. Three additional bedrooms are located on the lower level, each offering comfortable closet space and its own en-suite bathroom. A centrally located laundry room completes the lower level. 14 solar panels help keep utility costs low. The attached two-car garage provides direct access into the home, allowing residents to enter comfortably, even during inclement weather. The renowned Briones Regional Park’s trails are just a short walk from the home. Lafayette’s restaurants are close at hand to the west, and Walnut Creek’s robust shopping area is nearby to the east.
