A brick stairway meanders down through the immaculate garden to the home’s spacious foyer. It leads to the 300-sq-ft living room, with a paneled ceiling above, parquet hardwoods below, wood-burning fireplace and deck access. Move for dinner to the spacious dining room, with views on 3 sides. The well-appointed kitchen sits alongside, with elite appliances, granite counters, extraordinary garden views through oversized windows, a skylight and oak hardwoods. The principal suite and another large bedroom also are on the main floor, each with an en-suite bath. Both have ample closets; the principal suite has 2. The other bedrooms are downstairs, along with a 450-sq-ft family/rec room (with fireplace). That room leads outside to a deck and down to the swimming pool (resurfaced in 2020), and the adjacent bathroom and outdoor shower. Work or study in the spacious office on the main floor, with deck access and views of surrounding trees. Parking is easy in the 3-car garage and on the cul-de-sac above. For safety, the home’s roof was replaced in 2012 with Eaglelite Ponderosa concrete tiles, and the fully equipped fire station is just down the hill. So, too, are Lafayette’s restaurants and shopping, just minutes away.
