Walls of glass offer serene views of Happy Valley, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, including access to a spacious deck perfect for even large gatherings. An expansive sport court offers endless possibilities for recreation, including pickleball, tennis, and basketball, while a three-car garage with an upstairs bonus room and abundant storage adds convenience.

Conveniently close to BART and the beautiful Lafayette Reservoir.
