Architecturally designed to nestle into the gentle hillside, this exceptional Contemporary residence lends itself to a feeling of timeless elegance and impressive sense of style. Every detail is orchestrated around the owners' exceptional art collection, subtle symmetry and relationship to space and light with stunning 280-degree views of the valley. This meticulously designed five-bedroom, five and a half bath, 5,502 sq ft home offers a lifestyle of luxurious comfort and beauty within close proximity to San Francisco.
Set on a pristine 0.85 acres in one of Lafayette's most sought after neighborhoods, this custom built home delights the senses and is the epitome of seclusion and tranquility. You enter through a stunning private gate up a sweeping drive set back from the street to the front entrance and three car garage. Only the beginning of taking in the breathtaking hillside views and Happy Valley.
Walls of glass bring the beautiful natural setting into the dramatic entry with soaring ceilings, leading to an expansive open floor plan encompassing a grand living room with striking stone fireplace and wet bar. Sliding glass doors open to the expansive outdoor living areas with backyard, patio and decks throughout the property. An adjoining family living area opens to an eat-in kitchen and breakfast bar in this sun-drenched kitchen filled with light. Glass doors connect to the newly refinished terrace, ideal for relaxing and dining alfresco with your favorite glass of Chardonnay.
An elegant dining room was built with an artist's eye for design. There is a spectacular view from every seat at the dining room table of a unique and different piece of art seen through custom arches. Close by one can find a handsome office with custom built-ins and doors opening to a lovely lawn and garden.
Crossing luxurious stone floors, one enters the bedroom wing of the home, with three en suite bedrooms, ample closet space and magnificent views from each bedroom, providing both privacy and convenience. The home is filled with modernist gems and finishes creating a bold look with dramatic elements.
Upon entering the private Master Suite, one is taken by the serene luxury of the spaces provided. Here you will find a generous sitting area with warm fireplace and stunning views. Soaring ceilings accommodate large pieces of art and a feeling of spaciousness. An over-sized master bath-suite with soaking tub and steam shower has an adjoining luxurious "dressing room" in addition to a master walk-in closet.
On the lower level is the fifth bedroom suite complete with private bath. This is ideal for an au pair or in-law unit. There is a full laundry room with easy access. An additional bonus is a children's play room for a piano and wonderful fun activities.
The timeless elegance of style and sophistication highlights this gracious home. Located just minutes to Happy Valley Elementary School (check availability), downtown Lafayette shopping and restaurants, the Lafayette Reservoir, Oakwood Athletic Club and BART.
Close to the vitality of San Francisco and two International airports.
