Property Description

Yes, it’s up a hill—but that’s called peace and privacy, and when you're just minutes to top-rated schools and downtown Orinda, what's the problem? You get views, space, and quiet—without giving up convenience. Designed by a renowned Japanese architect, this 5BR/4.5BA estate sits on nearly 1.5 acres above the fog with wraparound views of Briones and the reservoir. Inside, walls of glass, high ceilings, and a central courtyard with koi pond create calm and light. The two-story primary suite is a dream retreat with a spa-like bath. Right next door? A bedroom and bath—perfect for a nursery or keeping littles close. But come on, do you really want to sleep next to your kids forever? Down the hall, a separate wing with three more bedrooms and two baths offers privacy and views. Huge rec room, two offices, a pool, spa, gazebo, tons of parking, and a 3-car garage. No other house looks like this one—don’t be ordinary. This is the home people talk about at parties for years. Be bold. Be unforgettable.
