Peaceful, private & pristine...
Rare is the property that truly has it all. On everyone's wish list is a verdant, scenic neighborhood, a perfectly flat 1/3 acre lot with views of Mt Diablo & the surrounding hillsides, a home with a stunning, pristine & bespoke interior. For the first time home buyers, empty nesters looking to downsize, and everyone else in between: this home on quiet Kenston is a single-level gem that is truly spectacular. From the moment you pull up, beautiful landscaping greets you at first glance: a lush lawn, mature redwood trees, curated greenery & an elegant mailbox all offer stop-the-car curb appeal.
Step inside, and the warm real hardwood floors will assure you of the level of quality you can expect throughout.
A fabulous Chef’s kitchen offers custom cabinetry, Quartz slab counters, new stainless appliances ( including an induction stove), and a large sink with pull-down faucet overlooking the front yard. Separately, but just right up the way, a coffee station/buffet area gives you additional storage and sits across from a charming built-in breakfast nook with views of the stunning front yard, hummingbirds & quails.
The spacious family room offers abundant for daily life and entertaining- hardwood floor continues through here, as well as wainscoting, three picture lights and a gas fireplace, and an intuitive sliding door to the backyard. You’ll breathe a sigh of contentment when you realize you now have the PERFECT hosting area in this formal dining room. A picture window offers sunlight throughout the day, and truly frames the stunning backyard scene. Striking chandelier & matching sconces create the perfect ambiance. As far as dining rooms go, it’s large one~ you’ll have space for even the longest dining tables. At last: the space you've been waiting for to host in style.
The bathrooms are simply impeccable. Quartz counters & custom cabinets, a modern tub with subway tile & frameless shower door in the hall bath...penny round tile floors, a stunning vanity, arched mirror & a stall shower in the primary bath. The primary suite promises peace and views. It conveniently offers an ensuite bathroom, ceiling fan, bedside sconces and sliding door offering access and glimpses of the verdant backyard.
Bonus that most people never anticipate at this price point? A marvel of a fully finished garage: complete with Epoxy floor, storage shelving and a near 3-car capacity—more than enough space here for 2 cars PLUS gym setup if you so desire.
The backyard is absolutely California dream come true: nearly a 1/3 of an acre with views of Mt Diablo, perfectly flat and professionally landscaped, offering • Two paving stone patios • Wood pergola • Lawn & mature trees • Bluestone steps • Fountain • Pea gravel patio perfect for play structure or picnic area.

Neighborhood
City living meets the countryside in Clayton, a small community of just over 10,000 people. Located at the northern base of Mount Diablo, the quiet country lanes lead to contemporary and traditional estate homes on large parcels of land.
For nature lovers, Mount Diablo offers an extensive network of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails. Just outside of town, the Lime Ridge Trail leads through the rugged hills of the open-space preserve.
Civic events are popular in this family-friendly town, including the 4th of July Parade, the annual Oktoberfest celebration, and the Clayton Counts Down New Year's Eve celebration. The Art and Wine Festival features craftsmanship from many local vineyards and artists, and the Concerts in The Grove series in The Grove Park bring hundreds to the plaza from May through September. The Grove Park also features a farmers market and a playground for kids.
