Description
3 bedroom, 2 bath with outstanding views and greater privacy than most single-family homes. This duplex-style townhouse is all on one level with no neighbors above you or below you, and only one attached neighbor on one of the four exterior sides of the home. There are no common walls in the living room, dining room, kitchen, guest bath, guest room #1, master bath, or master bedroom (except the hallway). The only common wall is along one side of guest room #2, the hallway closet, the laundry area, and the hallway to the master bedroom. The home feels super private and is well insulated for both sound and climate control.
We have never had window coverings in the living room--no one can see in, and instead you have beautiful views of the neighboring hillsides and spectacular sunsets off to the left of the rear patio. There is also a front courtyard/patio that is enclosed with a fence and a gate before the front door.
The townhouse is located at the top of Ascot Highlands on a dead-end street just steps from a hiking trail with panoramic views of Mount Diablo and other parts of Contra Costa. It is a very peaceful and relaxing location.
