Tucked beautifully at the end of a winding court on 1.1 verdant acres, 3620 Madrone Drive is a cozy but sprawling Lafayette gem — 2,518 sq ft, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, surrounded by trees and lush forest views. The elegant entry opens to vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, oversized windows, an elegant fireplace, and a stately chandelier. A single glass door and expansive wrap-around deck extend the living space seamlessly outdoors. The light-filled kitchen is a delight: abundant counter space, stainless steel appliances, glass-front sideboards, picture windows, and direct deck access. A built-in desk under a picture window creates a dedicated home office nook; laundry is conveniently tucked nearby. The bedroom level offers spacious rooms with built-ins, garden views from every window, a skylit hall bath, and a den/great room with vaulted ceilings, French doors, and two walls of built-ins. The primary suite is privately positioned with a walk-in closet, full bath, and its own patio. Shining hardwood floors throughout. The grounds are extraordinary: sweeping wood decks, lawns, garden beds, woodshed, tool shed, and a lower deck with valley views. A wide half-circle drive with a carport and room to build a garage completes the package. Placed perfectly just off Moraga Road — minutes from award-winning schools, downtown Lafayette dining and shopping, trails, the Lafayette Reservoir, BART, and commute routes. Come experience the enchantment!
