Description

216 Crestview will capture your heart and imagination. Set on 1.4 acres at the cul-de-sac end of Crestview Drive, this charming and private home is ready for the next owner’s personal touch and updates.

Set above the road, the property has 2,825 square feet divided between two buildings. The main house features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and an inviting kitchen, living and dining room. The kitchen is a special room in this warm home, with a wood-burning brick fireplace right in the sitting area. The living area has vaulted ceilings and another stone fireplace, and leads to a formal dining room which opens to the outdoors through double doors. The entire main house is level out to the expansive backyard.

Off the foyer and down the hall, the light-filled master bedroom features sliding doors opening onto a private deck and garden area. The bright master bath has a walk-in closet, deep soaker tub and steam shower. The second bedroom is large and bright, with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, plenty of closet space and a door out to the garden. The smaller third bedroom also has garden views.

Across a covered breezeway, the second two-story building was formerly used as an artist’s studio. Oversized skylights bathe the upstairs with sunshine. A balcony overlooks the backyard. A full bathroom and space to add an efficiency kitchen upstairs would make this a perfect guest suite or au-pair unit. The downstairs room could become anything - a guest room, media room, office, play room, teenage hangout or home gym. The property also has a laundry room, a two-car carport and an extra storage shed in the back.

Located minutes from town, this secluded lot has the potential to be a gardener’s dream. In the front, raised flower beds are ready for planting. Out back, two flat grassy areas offer plenty of room to play and entertain, add a play structure, patios or anything you can imagine. Large trees create pockets of shade and paths wind up the hill, ready to be explored.

The home has updated dual pane windows, new carpet and hardwood floors in some rooms.

This wonderful home is in the Del Rey/Orinda Intermediate/Miramonte School attendance areas (please check with the schools for class availability).
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "Great for families, excellent school, charming town. Fun hikes and lots of cycling options. Near BART and just 20 mins to SF ( with light traffic). Lots of greenery and very very friendly and safe. "
  • Justice Speaks
    "If you live on top of the hill, there is always some traffic to beat - just to get to the freeways. "
  • Mpietrykowski
    "4th of July parade. Kids sports ( swimming, baseball, basketball, flag football, etc) Music in the park. "
  • Mpietrykowski

  • Edhausser

  • Carissa H.
    "Very very good schools. Nice people. Lots of wildlife - deer, turkeys, Fox, coyote, owls, and much much more."
  • Daniel
    "Not all streets have sidewalk so you must be careful of cars passing on side streets. That being said it’s a lovely neighborhood."
  • Dana Y.
    "There are not alot of exit points in Orinda in the event of a fire or a disaster. There is a small town feel to this place. "
  • Staylor31
    "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. "
  • Home B.
    "Great access to public Transportation; good access to High way; "
  • Kelly R.
    "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. "
  • Rick W.
    "Lived here for 37 years, went to high school here in the 60s. It’s safe, beautiful hills and oak trees, good restaurants, close to many cultural opportunities. "
  • Matt
    "25 years in this community. Deer and raccoons drink from my pool. I have no concern leaving my doors unlocked.....though I don’t as a precaution."
  • Casey
    "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."
  • Gregalker
    "The rolling hills the cool weather the peace and serenity and the closeness to everything that is frenetic and pays well"
  • Jay W.
    "Peaceful, safe with low crime, kind neighbors who generally look out for each other, topped by great schools."
  • Katherine R.
    "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. "
  • Klmilan
    "Semi-rural ambiance, convenient location for shopping and public transportation, friendly and super safe .... hard-to-beat by any standard."
