A Private Sanctuary
∎
Set along the storybook streets near Parkmead, this single-story home unfolds as a true sanctuary—where thoughtful design, natural light, and effortless livability come together in a way that feels both elevated and deeply personal.
The 3-bedroom, 1-bath main residence +/- 1,573 Sq. Ft. is complemented by a detached +/- 285 Sq. Ft. casita studio with a full bath, offering a beautifully appointed extension of the home and a rare level of versatility. From the moment you arrive, the wraparound front porch invites slow mornings with coffee and easy conversations that linger, setting a tone of quiet charm and intentional living. Inside, a refined yet welcoming aesthetic defines the home. Engineered hardwood flooring, quartz countertops, and dual pane windows create a sense of understated luxury, while natural light moves gracefully through each space. The living room becomes a place to gather and unwind, anchored by a designer inspired dry bar that transforms movie nights and casual evenings into something more memorable.
As you step outside, the experience becomes even more transportive. The backyard is designed for ambiance and connection—where string lights cast a soft, glowing warmth overhead, creating an inviting setting for al fresco dinners, relaxed entertaining, or peaceful evenings under the stars. The detached casita offers a serene retreat all its own, complete with a Murphy bed and a spa-inspired shower—perfect for guests, extended stays, or a private escape. A separate detached office creates a true work-from-home sanctuary, while an additional storage studio offers practical convenience with a thoughtful, cohesive feel. All of this is just minutes from downtown Walnut Creek and Lafayette, with easy access to BART, top rated schools, major commute routes, and nearby hiking trails—offering a lifestyle that feels both connected and quietly removed, where everyday living takes on a softer, more meaningful rhythm.

about this
Neighborhood
∎
Walnut Creek sits at the base of Mount Diablo with quick access to open space, the Iron Horse Regional Trail, and BART service from two nearby stations (Walnut Creek and Pleasant Hill/Contra Costa Centre), making trips to Oakland, San Francisco, and the Tri-Valley straightforward.
Downtown centers on Broadway Plaza —an open-air shopping district with flagship retailers like Nordstrom and Apple—plus scores of cafes and services. The Lesher Center for the Arts anchors the arts scene with hundreds of performances each year.
Parks and trails are a big draw: the city maintains 16 parks and 3,000+ acres of protected open space, and Civic Park’s habitat gardens (including a butterfly garden) sit steps from the Iron Horse Trail.
You’ll find a mix of homes in Walnut Creek: 1950s–70s ranches on larger lots, pockets of mid-century Eichlers in Rancho San Miguel, and established areas like Parkmead and Northgate with tree-lined streets and community pools. Near BART and downtown are townhomes and condo buildings—many newer, mixed-use, and walkable. In the hills, custom homes capture Mount Diablo views. Walnut Creek also includes Rossmoor, one of the Bay Area’s largest 55+ communities, with condos, co-ops, and single-level homes plus resort-style amenities.
