Description

Re-doing the kitchen was a family project. Shown is one of our sons, learning how the thing is done after he finished college. We did it all ourselves.

Traffic noise is a distant whisper from this spacious house in a quiet, beautiful location above the Orinda Country Club, near St. Stephens Church. Ideal for commuting or working at home. Orinda public schools are among the best in the US. Local elementary is Sleepy Hollow.

This is a pleasant place to live. People tend to stay a long time.

You may wonder why the price is about $2000 cheaper than nearby comparable houses. The answer is that we have owned it a long time, have a modest mortgage, and are passing on some of the savings.

We have recently replaced the gas furnace with a heat pump system that provides air conditioning, too.

The entrance level, with hardwood floors, has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, renovated kitchen, 25 ft. dining/family room, plus large living room with gas fireplace, 10x20' covered deck. Lower level (with separate entrance) has the fourth bedroom, a bathroom, laundry, workshop, and storage could be used for teen or au pair suite or home office. There is lots of room in this house, more than the estimated square footage indicates.

Quiet private street, no through traffic, large lot. There are wooded views from the master bedroom, deck, living room and dining room. The front side of the house faces the entry patio and planted hillside. If you like to garden, there are many opportunities or you could hire a gardener. A drip watering system is installed. In this neighborhood fiber optic cable is available right into the house.

The owners have no plans to sell or move in.

Please call Phil (landline no texts) or include your phone number in your email message.

We would like the first lease to end April 30, 2025, renewable annually thereafter. We have no intention of selling the house or moving in; we just want our leases to end in April.

Utilities paid by tenant.

    "Orinda is a tight knit community given the smaller size of the town. Making an investment in your relationships with your neighbors pays off in dividends! Get out and get to know the people around you. "

    "No sidewalks makes it tough to get out with little kids and even bigger kids riding bikes is difficult. In general super safe, the roads are narrow and very curvy probably the least safe thing for kids is walking to and from the bus stop. "

    "Lived here for 12 years now. We love Orinda's almost rural feeling, with great access to BART and therefore San Francisco, Oakland, and everywhere else it goes to. Families in our neighborhood tend to stay put. Some homes are occupied by 2nd generations, and the couple 3 doors down form us have been there since the 1950s. Very peaceful, quiet, safe."

    "It’s beautiful, quiet, and private. I’ve lived here for about 20 years. The houses are all unique and gorgeous. There are lots of trees, you almost feel like you’re living out in the country instead of in the middle of a sprawling metropolitan area, just on the other side of the Caldecott tunnel from Oakland. While you definitely can’t walk to the grocery store, Safeway is a pretty close drive and there are shops and restaurants right at the bottom of the hill. My favorite part of living here is close proximity to grizzly peak and Tilden and Sibley parks. The steam trains and merry-go-round are fantastic for young children, and there are excellent hiking trails with views of the bay. "
