A Single-Story Modern Adobe Sanctuary atop a Private Knoll Rarely does a property of such distinction and architectural soul become available in Walnut Creek. A sanctuary perched atop its own private knoll on nearly 3/4ths of an acre, this one-of-a-kind, single-story adobe estate offers views in almost every direction, including Mt. Diablo, Las Trampas, and Walnut Creek city lights. Originally constructed with custom adobe bricks pressed directly on-site, the main home underwent a comprehensive renovation (2019–2020), seamlessly blending historic craftsmanship with modern luxury and a pleasing aesthetic lift. Inside, cool polished concrete floors lead you through architecturally impressive living spaces featuring four bedrooms and two full baths. Step outside into a resort-style paradise with distinct wine country aesthetic meets adobe vibes - right down to the 200+ year old olive tree and beautiful towering oaks that surround the property. The newly renovated swimming pool equipped with an automatic pool cover, a shaded southern dining pavilion, an outdoor kitchen, and two outdoor fire experiences- one to frame Mount Diablo and an oversized fire pit showcasing sunsets over the Las Trampas hills. Attached via breezeway, an upscale 1 bed/1 bath guest suite—ideal for an executive office, guests, or a private retreat. Beyond the pool, a private rear gate provides direct, exclusive access to Mount Diablo’s open space and miles of scenic hiking trails. Living here means you are always just moments to downtown. Walnut Creek offers no limit to the luxury lifestyle, high-end gyms and niche fitness studios, a vast array of dining options, the beautiful Broadway Plaza with extensive shopping, as well as The Lesher Center for theater & arts. This special location offers easy access to freeways yet the feeling of being miles away from it all. Truly a singular residence with no equal in Walnut Creek or perhaps, the greater East Bay. Property Highlights: * Architectural Heritage: Renovated single-story adobe construction with bricks crafted on-site; contemporary metal roof and sleek polished concrete floors throughout * Extensive Renovation: Comprehensively updated in 2019–2020 with high-end designer finishes * Unmatched Setting: Perched atop a private knoll offering breathtaking views * Oasis Backyard: Brand-new pool with automatic cover, outdoor kitchen, shaded southwestern dining area, terraced gardens, as well as east and west fire pits for sunrise & sunset
