12 Orchard Road

Sun and Seclusion in Orinda
 

Oaks and other mature trees surround this compound, a private driveway removed from beautiful Orchard Road. The property is close to Theater Square, with BART just beyond. Three buildings comprise the property. The main residence, nearly 2,000 square feet alone, has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, with hardwood floors and many new windows throughout. The principal suite has a spacious bedroom with a fireplace and a renovated bathroom. That bedroom’s French doors lead to a large wooden deck that welcomes the afternoon sun. After the sun sets, relax in the sunken spa, or enjoy a glass of wine with friends around the deck. The other bedrooms share a bathroom and terrace. The kitchen offers top appliances, distinctive countertops, and a spacious breakfast bar. The kitchen adjoins the principal dining area. It flows seamlessly into the 442 square foot family/living room, featuring a wood-burning fireplace, garden views, and additional deck access. Two ancillary buildings complete the premises. The larger of the two is a fully equipped 800 square foot guest house, which recently rented out for $3000/mo. Nearby is a 250 square foot office/studio, perfect for study or working from home. A security system protects the premises, and a covered carport comfortably accommodates two vehicles.
