Serenity In Alamo
$3,200,000

It is all about the views! Whether it's the clear sight of Mount Diablo presiding over a fog-covered valley, being eye-level with a red-tailed hawk riding the thermals, watching the sun slowly rise into a fiery red sky, or views of the Suisan Bay, the breathtaking scenery here rarely fails to make one pause and reflect on the beauty.
The property sits behind a beautiful wrought iron gate which not only promotes privacy and security, but also defines the property boundary and sets the tone for the quality of life within the gates. On the 3.72 acre property is the main home, 4306+/- sf with 5 bedrooms and 3 baths, and next to it, detached but joined at the foundation, is a 1128+/- sf guest suite with separate entrance. Curb appeal and fire safety are enhanced by the home being adorned with Loon Lake Natural Stone and James Hardie fiber cement shingles. The arrangement of the two homes next to one another provides a great deal of flexibility - extended family living close but preserving privacy, use of the second home for a caretaker or nanny, use as income generation, or use as an office. The current owners have thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained the home. Most rooms enjoy the spectacular views.
The grounds are gorgeous and professionally designed. Established massive oaks and other mature trees provide the landscaping base, which is augmented by carefully chosen perennials and shrubs that provide year round color and beauty with drought tolerance in mind. Large hand carved wooden sculptures accent the beauty. The recently refurbished rectangular pool and motorized cover is surrounded by stamped concrete. Adjacent to the pool is a huge redwood deck. The outdoor areas are perfect for both large scale entertaining or solitary serenity.
There is a wine cellar, formerly a cold war era fallout shelter at the base of the large stacked stone retaining walls. A large array of rooftop solar panels electrify the home and Tesla EV charging outlet. Two batteries for backup is on site to ensure a continuous power supply. There is a full parking lot, complete with bumpers and lined spaces, in the lower level of the yard. The home operates on septic by owner’s choice but has the option to tie into the public sewer system.
