Property Description
An Enchanting Escape. Set within the coveted Walnut Knolls neighborhood and nestled among a canopy of mature trees, this updated single-story home on nearly half an acre, blends thoughtful renovations with warmth, character, and understated elegance. Offering 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the home features vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, hardwood floors, a new roof, designer lighting, and curated finishes throughout. The layout includes a spacious family room and two ensuite bedrooms, providing both comfort and flexibility. The grounds are equally compelling. Curb appeal is a standout, creating a warm and welcoming first impression. A generous backyard showcases a sport court, expansive space for a future pool or ADU, and an elevated seating area perfectly positioned to capture sunset views through the surrounding trees. With its scale, privacy, and picturesque setting, the property has even hosted multiple intimate weddings—an exceptional testament to its beauty and sense of place. Located just moments from the elementary school and near the optional Walnut Knolls Association, the home offers both convenience and a strong sense of community. Optional membership includes a pool, playground, and a year-round calendar of neighborhood events. Minutes from parks, top-rated schools, BART, and downtown Walnut Creek, with a shortcut bridge just down the street offering easy, direct access to downtown.
