Set on nearly half an acre in Lafayette, this Spanish-inspired home keeps everything on one easy level. Arched windows and doorways carry you from room to room, and the light that moves through them makes even an ordinary morning feel unhurried. At its heart is a central living room. The family room opens to one side, and on the other, a built-in bar and a cozy sitting area look out over the garden, the spot you’ll claim for a good book. The house is just as happy hosting a quiet night in as a full house of friends. The kitchen, remodeled in 2021, is built around a La Cornue range and outfitted with Gaggenau appliances, a true chef’s kitchen. A spacious walk-in pantry keeps everything organized and close at hand, so the counters stay clear for cooking and gathering. The kitchen opens to the dining area, where wide windows frame Briones and Mount Diablo, so the hills become part of every meal and every first cup of coffee. Two suites sit at opposite ends of the home, each with its own door to the yard, giving everyone room to breathe, whether that’s extended family, long-term guests, or simply a little quiet. The primary suite has a sunlit solarium made for early-morning tea or yoga, and a bath with a deep soaking tub for unwinding at the end of the day. The second suite offers a walk-in closet and a bath with a jetted tub and steam shower. Two more bedrooms are ready to become an office, a studio, or a place for guests. Out back, the grounds feel like a private resort. A heated pool and a pergola-shaded patio invite long afternoons in the sun, the kind that make a Tuesday feel like a holiday, and lush landscaping offers quiet corners to sit and take it all in. An attached three-car garage keeps the everyday simple. Downtown Lafayette’s restaurants, shops, and markets are just minutes away, along with the Lafayette Reservoir and its miles of trails. Highway 24 and BART put San Francisco within easy reach. The home is served by Lafayette schools, including Happy Valley Elementary, Stanley Middle, and Acalanes High (buyer to verify). Single-level ease, a backyard made for living, and room for everyone to spread out rarely come together like this in Lafayette. This one feels like home the moment you walk in.

Welcome to a home where the day begins beneath towering redwoods, tucked within one of Happy Valley's most exclusive enclaves. This updated modern residence offers something increasingly hard to find: a private, tree lined setting paired with the ease of living close to everything. Walls of windows keep the interior bright and open, so the surrounding trees read as a backdrop to daily life rather than a canopy overhead, private and unhurried, yet never removed from the rhythm of the neighborhood. Inside, 3,707± square feet unfold across a bright, open floor plan built around light and connection. Skylights and walls of windows frame views of the surrounding oaks and redwoods, giving each room a sense of place without closing it in. Soaring ceilings rise above a kitchen and family room that flow together as the true center of the home, finished with Miele, Viking, and Sub-Zero appliances and a temperature-controlled wine closet ready for a weeknight dinner or a celebration that spills onto the decks. The HVAC system, water heater, and roof have all been replaced within the last five years, offering peace of mind. The bedrooms are generous in scale, and the primary suite is the standout: a private balcony with treetop views, a luxurious en suite bath, and a walk-in closet. Outside, expansive decks, including an oversized Ipe deck, and a back patio give room to entertain on any scale, in a setting that feels both private and open. All of this sits in the heart of Happy Valley, close to top rated Happy Valley Elementary and just moments from the shops, restaurants, and markets of downtown Lafayette. Commuters will appreciate the easy freeway access and nearby Lafayette BART, while surrounding trails and open space keep the natural world within reach.
