Phillip O. Perkins designed Claremont Hills contemporary featuring high voluminous ceilings and a simple and gracious floor plan. All four bedrooms, including the primary suite, are situated on the second floor and there are separate living and family rooms, as well as a chef's kitchen with large island. Rare for the hills, the large lot slopes gently from the street to the front door. Outdoor spaces include an enveloping and tranquil level side yard, as well as a private back patio. The location is a true sanctuary and piece of natural beauty, with ample nearby parks and trails, but is a mere 10 minutes or less to: Claremont (Peet's, Fournée Bakery, Rick & Ann's), Elmwood (Italian Homemade, Humphry Slocombe, La Mediterranee), Rockridge (BART, Trader Joe's, Ramen Shop, Market Hall), Montclair Village (Highwire Coffee Roasters, Daughter Thai), & Orinda.
