Property Description

Main House: 3 Bedroom | 2 Bath | 1868± Sq. Ft. The Little House: 1 Bedroom | 1 Bath | 290± Sq. Ft. The Garden House: 220± Sq. Ft. .50± Acre Lot | 2-Car Garage Charming. Whimsical. Wonderfully convenient. Welcome to a storybook Lafayette retreat on .50± acre, pairing a 1,868± square-foot main house with 865± square feet of flexible space across three outbuildings. It carries a true fairy-tale pedigree: brickwork by Doug Allinger, stepson of celebrated builder Carr Jones, extends all the way to the custom mailbox. The magic begins at the front door and its speakeasy window. Inside, seven skylights and largely Andersen and Marvin windows and doors fill the home with light. The open living and dining room gathers around a fireplace, a separate family room offers another place to unwind, and a breakfast nook and bay window invite lingering. Three bedrooms and two baths include an unusually generous primary bath with heated herringbone marble floors, a curbless walk-in shower, custom cabinetry, a vanity with built-in desk, and a skylight. Outside, upper and lower lawns, flower beds, a prolific Meyer lemon, and a gated garden with four planting beds create vignettes at every turn. The Little House, updated with a walk-in shower, suits a home office, studio, or guest suite. The two-level Garden House playhouse, with a turret, Dutch door, and sleeping loft, has the feel of a tree house, while a skylit studio above the garage invites creative pursuits. Original murals by local artist Norman Remer grace both the Garden House and the garage studio. Burton Valley Elementary, Stanley Middle, and Acalanes High complete the award-winning school path, The Meher Schools offers a private option, and a Burton Valley Elementary bus stop sits directly across the street. A Lafayette-Moraga Regional Trail connector begins just past the neighboring home, and downtown Lafayette, Walnut Creek, Highway 24, and Interstate 680 are all within easy reach. Made for readers, dreamers, and tinkerers, this is a home with a story worth continuing. The next chapter is yours to write.
