Where Modern Luxury Meets Endless Views Perched on a private .60-acre lot above Walnut Creek, 189 Rudgear Drive blends stunning design, serene privacy, and sweeping Mt. Diablo views. Every detail feels intentional—crafted for beauty, comfort, and longevity. Lovingly restored in 2025 with over $1.2M invested, this 4BD/2.5BA, 2,436 sq ft home is not a flip—it’s a true transformation. Five new redwood decks frame unforgettable panoramas. Upgrades include James Hardie siding, a new roof, all new electrical, Milgard windows, skylights that fill the home with natural light, Gaia luxury floors, and fresh paint inside and out. The reimagined kitchen and family room center on the views with Vadara quartz counters, Thermador appliances, and a pot filler. A spa-inspired primary suite, custom wine cellar, gym, and abundant storage complete the picture. Magical front and backyard spaces invite entertaining, gardening, or unwinding in privacy—all just minutes from downtown Walnut Creek, top-rated schools, and 680. 189 Rudgear Drive isn’t just rebuilt—it’s been lovingly restored, offering a rare blend of luxury, convenience, and endless views. Crafted for those who expect more from where they live. A must see!
