    What's special

    Airy and infused with vibrant light, this five-bedroom contemporary combines expansive spaces and visual and physical connection to serene, green surroundings. Its large, level lot features a broad deck, patio, and gardens with an outlook on treed rolling hills. A stone???s throw from the property, the Lafayette-Moraga Regional Trail, which stretches more than seven miles, provides hiking, biking, and equestrian enjoyment. Distinguished by an angular framework, the interior is exalted by a vaulted beamed ceiling and window formations that echo the ceiling???s pitch. The interior comprises five bedrooms, three bathrooms, formal living and dining rooms, family rooms on two levels, a newly revamped kitchen, plus a room well suited as an office. Wide glass doors expand the bright, breezy effect and extend indoor-outdoor connection from both family rooms and the master suite. In a configuration that unfurls fluidly on the main floor, public spaces link together seamlessly, and four bedrooms occupy a separate hallway. The lofty entry reveals hardwood flooring, which fans out across all public rooms, and a vaulted beamed ceiling tents the formal living room and adjacent family room. Between the two rooms and visible from both, a double-sided fireplace creates a warm focal point. A recessed lighting scheme radiates throughout. The eat-in kitchen, recently renovated, integrates a skylighted breakfast area bordered by a peninsula that incorporates cabinetry. Pristine and plentiful throughout, white cabinetry exudes fresh appeal. Reflecting lustrous finishes, quartz countertops in a white-sand motif flecked with tortoise shell pair with a backsplash of glass subway tile. New stainless appliances include a French-door refrigerator, double wall ovens and dishwasher. Graced with verdant hilly vistas beyond its redwood balcony, the master suite forms a tranquil sanctuary. Generous in dimensions and built-ins, the walk-in closet sits across from a double-sink vanity and linen closet. An advantageously separate enclosed space accommodates the tub, stall shower, and toilet alcove. A tile scheme evocative of cappuccino adorns this bathroom and correlates to a similar one in the large hall bathroom. Downstairs, a large beamed-ceiling family room overlooks the garden and opens directly to it. The fifth bedroom, a full bathroom, and an additional room, ideal as an office, atelier or exercise studio, complete this level.Storage and functionality exist throughout: a three-car attached garage offers direct entry to the main floor; within the bedroom hallway, a laundry room contains front-loader facilities and cabinetry; a closet assortment includes one in the entryway and linen closets on both levels.
