351 El Toyonal

Private hillside retreat with panoramic Briones Reservoir views—trees partially obscure the view, but per City of Orinda, buyer may trim to enhance it. A private driveway leads to generous parking and turnaround space. This modern home offers privacy, sustainability, and flexibility with owned solar and Tesla Powerwalls. Per seller, PG&E bills average ~$15/month. The main-level primary suite boasts sweeping views, a spa-style bath, and walk-in closet. Bedrooms are thoughtfully spread across both levels—ideal for families, guests, or remote work. The great room features soaring ceilings, inlaid wood floors, and a view deck. The kitchen with Douglas fir cabinetry opens to a sunny dining area. The lower level includes a second living area, ensuite bedroom, wine/storage nook, and full bath. An upper-level suite opens to the yard. Located in top-rated Acalanes Union High School District (Miramonte High). Prior fire insurance ~$3,400/year (buyer to verify).
