A coveted 2519 sf, 5 BR, 2.5 BA and quality, custom built contemporary home in the coveted Sleepy Hollow neighborhood in Orinda. 1/2-acre lot on a quiet Cul de sac, with filtered views, and a sense of privacy.

Situated amongst a canopy of oak trees, the large living room with cathedral ceilings boasts filtered views through floor to ceiling windows. Gorgeous, recently refinished hardwood floors in all the living areas. Kitchen was remodeled in the 1990s with a seating nook area, and a laundry/mud room leading to the garage.

NOTES FROM THE SELLER:
Growing up at 21 Via Callados:
I love hearing the owls at night and the coyotes in the early morning. From the kitchen window, it is so fun to watch families of quail, bunnies and foxes (sometimes) on the lawn.
Swimming and tennis are just down the hill. As kids, we spent summer days swimming laps in the pool and hitting the ball on the courts at the Sleepy Hollow Swim & Tennis Club.
My parents entertained friends and family a lot on the deck outside on the lower level. It’s a great setting for summer parties. My brothers and I had a lot of fun playing ping pong on that deck in the summer too.
There’s a storage room downstairs set up to store wine. My dad had a lot of agribusiness clients and collected wine from those in the wine business. One of my brothers turned the outdoor storage room into a dark room to develop his photos!

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.
