Mid-century modern charm, uncommon privacy and thoughtful updates come together on a spacious quarter-acre lot in coveted Carriage Square. A well-designed single-level floor plan seamlessly connects the living spaces, with no steps to navigate. Step inside to find a roman brick fireplace anchoring a sun bathed living room. The dining room flows effortlessly into the beautifully renovated kitchen (2024), featuring stunning quartzite countertops and backsplash, a 5-burner gas range, a generous island for meal prep and casual dining, a wine/beverage refrigerator, and abundant cabinetry. The indoor laundry room ensures the oversized two-car garage remains fully functional, complete with an EV charger. From the garage or backyard patio, access the versatile bonus space—perfect as a home office, artist studio, gym, children’s playroom, or private guest quarters/4th bedroom. The backyard offers rare privacy, framed by lush shrubs, trees, and views of Mt. Diablo. Formerly a part of a tomato orchard, the property uses well water for rear lawn and garden irrigation, saving on water costs. Flourishing garden beds yield organic vegetables year-round, complemented by fruit trees including lemon, persimmon, plum, pear, nectarine, and avocado. Other upgrades include solid-core doors throughout,
