This estate exemplifies Moraga tranquility. Just a mile from Camino Pablo Elementary, and 1.5 miles from Joaquin Moraga Intermediate, the home sits on 5.52 acres on an aptly named lane – Quail Crossing – overlooking Moraga’s oak-dotted rolling hills.

Descend a stone driveway to the white portico and enter the home into a grand tiled foyer under a 20-foot ceiling. The living room and bar lie ahead; sit by the fireplace and enjoy the hillside views. Or work or study in the adjacent office with garden views; work from home was never better. To the right on the first floor is the dining room, with a spacious butler’s pantry leading to the kitchen. It features Miele, SubZero and Dacor appliances and a walk-in pantry (with a spacious wine refrigerator). The kitchen area offers a breakfast bar seating four-five, an informal dining area with garden and swimming pool access, a computer work station, and a casual family room with French doors and hillside views.

Newly refinished hardwoods cover almost all of the first floor. The spacious principal suite lies at the other side of the first floor, with both garden and hillside views, a fireplace, a spacious walk-in closet, and French doors leading to an outdoor area for dining or relaxation. The en-suite bath offers a MAAX spa and spacious shower with dual shower heads.

A grand spiral staircase rises from the foyer to the three other bedrooms and bathrooms. The bedrooms offer garden or hillside views and spacious closets and bathrooms. Another family room/playroom completes the second floor, with more views of beautiful trees, gardens, and oak-shaded hills. Entertainment outside is a pleasure, with a 37-foot swimming pool and Pentair Water hot tub as the yard’s centerpiece. The pool’s retractable cover keeps utility costs low, and the spacious pergola by the pool offers a shady area on the surrounding deck. A three-car garage accommodates all parking and storage needs. The home is a rare combination of elegance and Moraga country life.
