A truly special Happy Valley estate, cherished by the same family for generations and ready for its next chapter. Tucked behind wrought-iron gates and down a private, tree-lined drive, this one-of-a-kind property offers approximately 1.01 acres of flat, usable land, exceptional privacy, and timeless character. The single-level 3BR/3BA home offers approximately 2,600 sq ft with high ceilings, hardwood floors, expansive windows, formal living and dining rooms, family room, and a functional kitchen with breakfast nook. The beautifully landscaped grounds are the heart of the property, with expansive lawns, mature trees, gardens, multiple outdoor seating areas, and a sparkling gated pool creating an extraordinary setting for entertaining and everyday enjoyment. A three-car carport, additional workshop, and full-size laundry room provide added functionality. This is a property filled with family history and memories—from a granddaughter learning to ride her bike in the driveway to a wedding celebrated in the backyard and countless gatherings with family and friends. Ideally located minutes from downtown Lafayette, BART, and top-rated schools, this rare Happy Valley estate offers an exceptional opportunity to preserve its timeless charm, reimagine the existing home, or create something entirely new.
