Neighborhood
Great schools, weather, and access to San Francisco thanks to the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART), as well as semi-rural country living all make Orinda a desirable place to live in the Bay Area. There are a menagerie of residential options, from lovely Spanish and Mediterranean houses, to contemporary-styled homes.
Orinda's open spaces attract road and mountain bikers and hikers along the extensive network of trails. The proximity to Tilden Regional Park, San Pablo Reservoir, Briones Regional Park, and the Lafayette Reservoir offer plenty of options for nature lovers.
Orinda's small-scale shopping district is home to enticing boutiques and entertainment venues. Orinda Books in Village Square offers a reading series featuring local poets and literary notables. The revitalized Orinda Theatre Square, home to the California Independent Film Festival, hosts independent films and conversations with actors and actresses, and presents comedy nights and live theater performances. The California Shakespeare Theater, located in Bruns Amphitheater, is known for its live shows in a gorgeous outdoor setting.

Thirty years’ experience in the real estate business and my association with Coldwell Banker, has placed me in a unique position to help clients negotiate and obtain the best possible results when buying or selling a home. Whether helping sellers renovate, repair, and “fix to sell” or helping buyers visualize and create their dream home, I offer the expertise, knowledge and resources to help increase and maximize home values. Another tremendous advantage for clients is my performance as a consistent, year-over-year, top producer in Lamorinda and Coldwell Banker. My reputation and close relationships with local agents, plus an extensive “local” knowledge of the ins and outs of the Lamorinda community are invaluable when selling or finding my clients homes. A UC Berkeley graduate and Cal bear, I have lived and raised a family in the area for over thirty-five years! It is my pleasure to introduce clients to this wonderful community.
