Property Description
Private hillside retreat with panoramic views of Briones Reservoir. Enjoy direct access via a private driveway—no street parking hassles—leading to a convenient entry just steps from the front door. This modern home offers a rare blend of privacy, sustainability, and flexible living, featuring owned solar panels and Tesla Powerwalls. Per seller, monthly electric costs average just $15—the standard PG&E connection fee—with the solar system covering all usage. The main-level primary suite showcases reservoir views, a spa-inspired bath, and a walk-in closet. Bedrooms are thoughtfully distributed across both levels—ideal for families, guests, or remote work. The great room impresses with soaring ceilings, inlaid wood floors, and sliding doors opening to a view deck. The kitchen, with Douglas fir cabinetry, flows into the dining area. The lower level offers a separate living zone with deck access, an ensuite bedroom, a wine/storage nook, and a full bath. An additional upper ensuite opens to the yard. Located just minutes from BART, shopping, and top-rated Miramonte High (Acalanes Union HS District). Prior fire insurance was approximately $3,400/year through the CA FAIR Plan.
