Description de la propriété
Tucked away on one of Orinda’s most sought-after streets, this exceptional estate is a rare convergence of architectural pedigree, natural beauty, and serene seclusion. Conceived by renowned architect Henry Hill – founder of the Second Bay Tradition – this landmark residence is more than a home; it’s a legacy.
Invisible from the street and cradled by mature white and coastal live oaks, the estate is set on a private drive accessed by a handcrafted wrought-iron gate. Its distinctive sloping roofline and organic integration with the land create a powerful sense of peace and presence – no excavation disturbed the terrain, honoring the site’s natural contours.
Originally celebrated in Architectural Design, Book of Homes, Western Architect & Engineer, and Progressive Architecture, the home remains a living testament to modernist design. Two carefully executed renovations have preserved its architectural essence while introducing luxurious contemporary enhancements. The result is a rare balance: a home steeped in history yet tailored for modern living.
Inside, expansive beamed ceilings and a sweeping open-plan layout create a refined sense of space and flow. A formal dining room glows under a dramatic skylight, while the expansive living room – anchored by a striking fireplace – sets the stage for both intimate evenings and elegant entertaining.
The chef’s kitchen is a showpiece of function and form, outfitted with La Cornue, Miele, Wolf, and Sub-Zero appliances, marble countertops, and a spectacular 80-square-foot island. A walk-in pantry ensures effortless hosting. Floor-to-ceiling glass opens to reveal a breathtaking outdoor sanctuary – an infinity pool, spa, and sun-soaked deck offering the perfect setting for both lively gatherings and peaceful retreat.
Designed with flexibility in mind, the home offers multiple spaces for work and wellness – including a built-in kitchen workstation and a grand private office. Four bedrooms, including a dedicated gym, are thoughtfully positioned for privacy, served by three and a half spa-like bathrooms. The primary suite is a private haven, featuring a luxe marble bath with dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, an oversized shower, and a custom walk-in closet. A fifth ensuite bedroom is ideal for guests or extended family, ensuring hospitality and comfort. A three-car garage and a spacious motor court provide generous parking for residents and visitors alike.
Just steps from the sixth fairway of the Orinda Country Club and minutes from downtown Orinda, this estate offers the rare gift of complete privacy with instant access to convenient amenities. A sanctuary of style, history, and refinement – this is more than a residence; it is the ultimate Orinda address.
