Thoughtfully updated classic hillside terrace home nestled on a deep, private lot with designer qualities offering warmth and traditional character. Enjoy a peaceful setting just minutes from downtown Lafayette and Walnut Creek, with access to highly regarded schools. Tasteful designer upgrades create a welcoming, move-in-ready home, highlighted by two charming Birds-Nest'' retreats. The first is a custom built-in window seat in the great room, complete with generous storage drawers and elevated views of the mature, natural surroundings above the front yard and street. Ideally situated beside the main living area, this cozy perch offers a special place to relax. A wood-burning fireplace adds warmth, while the open floor plan flows seamlessly into the kitchen, featuring solid granite countertops, custom soft-close cabinetry, illuminated glass-front cabinets, crystal and metal hardware, a farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances. Hardwood flooring extends throughout the main living area and front bedrooms. A family/media room connects to a flexible space currently used as a laundry and art room, with potential for conversion to an additional bedroom or office space. Up a short flight of stairs, the second Birds-Nest'' retreat awaits: a private primary suite with an ensuite
