A spectacular, rare level lot of over one acre encircles this inviting, remodeled mid-century design home in Lafayette’s Happy Valley. Walls of glass frame the expansive outdoors as you enter the open, light-filled interior with its great room and inviting fireplace as the focal point. The elegant simplicity of the pitched roofline, vaulted wood plank ceiling and abundant windows draw the natural beauty of the outdoors within the home. An enhanced sense of volume is apparent throughout the main living areas, while the upper level windows complement those framing the yard to cascade light throughout the interior. Comprehensively remodeled in 2005, the home reflects today’s quality finishes and open floor plan, yet retains the classic elements of its mid-century architectural heritage. Elegant bamboo hardwood floors lead into the home and present the inviting great room, dining room, and a family room that seamlessly opens to the kitchen and breakfast nook. French doors in the great room and sliding glass doors in adjacent rooms open to the expansive backyard designed for recreation, entertaining, or simply tranquil relaxation. The swimming pool is surrounded by a large patio and expansive lawn beyond. Mature redwood, oak, maple and fruit trees encircle the park-like backyard and offer a welcome reprieve from urban life. A separate one bedroom/one bath cottage offers a wide range of uses for guests, in-laws, or an au pair. Located in one of the most coveted areas of Lafayette, you’ll enjoy the convenience of the proximity to the thriving commerce of downtown, the abundant recreational opportunities at the Lafayette Reservoir, nearby Briones Regional Park, as well as a convenient commute to San Francisco. City close, yet worlds away, this is a rare treasure.
