Extensively remodeled in 2021, this exceptional single-level residence pairs elevated design with the kind of thoughtful functionality that makes everyday living feel effortless. Offering 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and approximately 3,300± sq ft, the home unfolds across a beautifully executed floor plan where scale, comfort, and refinement coexist.
At the center of the home, a designer kitchen opens seamlessly to the dining and living spaces—creating an environment equally suited for lively entertaining and quiet evenings at home. A generous walk-in pantry adds everyday practicality while maintaining the home’s clean, elevated aesthetic. A substantial secondary den offers flexibility for movie nights, game days, a media room, or gathering space that evolves alongside your lifestyle.
Privately positioned, the primary suite was designed as a true retreat. Anchored by an electric fireplace and luxurious spa-like bath, the suite also includes an expansive walk-in dressing room and a bonus flex space perfectly suited as a nursery, executive home office, wellness room, or private gym.
Outside, curated grounds transform the property into a private resort setting. Framed by sculptural rock hardscape and mature landscaping, the heated pool—with integrated spa and cascading waterfall—is powered by both solar and gas for year-round enjoyment. Multiple patios create distinct destinations throughout the grounds for morning coffee, afternoon sunbathing, evening wine, or entertaining under the stars.
Additional highlights include the ease and accessibility of single-level living, air conditioning, abundant natural light enhanced by skylights, EV charging capability in the garage, parking for six vehicles, and a generous side yard with space for recreational vehicles, outdoor gear, or future possibilities.
A home designed to live beautifully—where luxury is measured not only in finishes, but in how effortlessly life unfolds within it.

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.
