Property Description
Built in 1959, this 2,468-square-foot home sits on 1.97 acres with sweeping valley views, a remarkably generous building pad, and the potential for spectacular views of Mount Diablo. The home retains much of its original mid-century character, including extensive wood paneling with striking grain patterns, much of it beautifully preserved. An impressive masonry fireplace anchors the living space, while several rooms feature gracious nine-foot ceilings. Other interesting features include a large walk-in pantry adjoining the modest kitchen, a former darkroom that could become a hobby or craft room, and a basement with potential for wine storage. The property itself may be the greatest attraction. An unusually large area of flat to gently sloping land offers considerable flexibility, while two separate driveways provide convenient access and could be advantageous for a future ADU or redevelopment. Selective trimming of landscaping and thoughtful window placement could open up exceptional Mount Diablo views. There are two compelling directions for this property: restore and reimagine a distinctive mid-century home, preserving the craftsmanship and architectural details that make it special, or start fresh and take full advantage of an extraordinary building site. All of this in a peaceful Alamo setting, less than ten minutes from downtown Alamo or Walnut Creek. A rare combination of acreage, accessibility, views, and opportunity.
