3447 Echo Springs Rd, Lafayette, CA 94549

Located on one of Lafayette’s most beautiful streets, a natural archway of stately trees ushers you through the entrance to Echo Springs Road lined with distinctive estate properties set back from the road, and rolling hills with pasture lands in the background. A gentle breeze drifts through the Heritage Oaks which lead you toward the brick-pillared circular driveway bordered by a lush lawn and trees that frame this custom-built 5 bedroom, 3 bath home on approximately 1 acre. A spacious entry leads you past the formal living and dining rooms to the dramatic great room filled with light from its wall of windows that look out to the magnificent backyard. Its vaulted ceiling adds volume to the room’s impressive size, and the beautiful floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is a welcoming focal point. The gorgeous, remodeled kitchen opens seamlessly to the great room, sharing the same wealth of light and views of the backyard. Rich white wood cabinetry is tastefully complemented by granite slab counters, the center island with its Dacor gas cook top and stainless steel hood, and an array of stainless steel appliances. Elegant tile floors flow through the kitchen into the spacious breakfast room with the look of hand-scraped wood – leading to the entrance of a large bonus/craft room. The living quarters include 5 spacious secondary bedrooms with 3 remodeled bathrooms. A light-filled hallway with 2 skylights leads to the bedrooms and the master suite. The laundry room is conveniently located in the bedroom wing, featuring abundant storage and counter space. The home integrates the beauty of the backyard through its numerous windows and glass doors that transition to it from the great room, breakfast room, and two of the home’s bedrooms. Designed to facilitate indoor/outdoor entertainment, an expansive patio flows from the house and encircles the glistening swimming pool with spa that spills into it. A trellis covered patio provides shade in the heat of the summer sun, while an expansive lawn embraced by gardens offers beauty and recreational opportunities. A raised bed garden area is surrounded by fruit trees, and another separate area of the yard offers the potential for additional play or recreation. Conveniently located within minutes to shopping, restaurants, freeways, and BART, Lafayette’s fine schools are presently served by school bus service to Springhill Elementary and Stanley Intermediate School.
