Set among beautifully landscaped gardens in Lafayette's sought-after Happy Valley neighborhood, this Carmel-inspired single-story home pairs timeless architecture with a great list of recent improvements. The 2,619± square foot floor plan includes four bedrooms, a private office or home gym, and three bathrooms, all on a generous 0.56± acre lot. New engineered hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas, where abundant natural light and French doors create an easy connection to the outside. The updated kitchen anchors the home, opening to both the dining area and family room, and is outfitted with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and custom cabinetry. Refreshed lighting brightens the family room and the living room. The bedrooms are set in their own wing for added privacy, and new energy-efficient windows bring extra comfort to the primary suite and a secondary bedroom. Custom closets by Closet Factory offer smart, organized storage, and a separate home office makes working from home easy. The home has also been improved with a full electrical rewire, a comprehensive security and alarm system by SimpliSafe and Eufy, a ChargePoint EV charger, new insulation in the garage, and comprehensive professional pest exclusion. The backyard is designed for entertaining and relaxation alike. A sparkling pool with its own bathroom, a covered loggia with outdoor kitchen, and mature gardens on a new Rachio smart irrigation system make outdoor living a pleasure in every season. Top-rated schools, the Lafayette Reservoir, and the Oakwood Athletic Club are all close by, as are downtown Lafayette's boutiques and acclaimed restaurants, including Michelin-recognized favorites. Commuters will appreciate convenient access to Highway 24 and BART, with San Francisco roughly 20 miles away.
