Property Description

This Swatt-Miers home, featured in Mansion Global, is impeccably appointed and commands arguably the best view in all Orinda. Descend into a gated enclave and put the cares of the world far away. On the wide travertine deck, bask in the afternoon sun and admire the Berkeley hills. Enjoy a glass of wine and the hillside lights from an infinity pool, outdoor dining area, firepit, and hot tub. The spacious guest house and walking path lie nearby. The home features ceilings nearly 14 feet high, spacious living and dining rooms, and floor-to-ceiling windows. A glass-enclosed wine cellar and concealed wet bar adjoin. The kitchen, with elite appliances, breakfast bar, and impeccable cabinetry floor to ceiling, leads to the glass-enclosed family room, with pool and hillside views. A sound system provides music to fit every mood. The principal bedroom suite offers striking views. Two spacious closets accommodate every wardrobe. The bathroom adjoins a separate private deck, and a comfortable office lies just steps away. Descend to the other bedrooms (each with views) and additional bathrooms and an entertainment room. A 3-car garage and adjacent parking area accommodate residents and guests, and a DKS gate system provides security. BART and the freeway are minutes away.
