3736 Highland Road

This property, a fixer, presents an opportunity to remodel or rebuild on a 0.67-acre lot close to the Lafayette Reservoir and within close to Lafayette's restaurants and shopping. The property offers privacy, as a curving driveway leads down to the home from the street. Oaks and other mature trees surround the property. The existing home is built in the mid-century modern style by well-known architect Roger Lee, and was home to its owner for 75 years. The centerpiece of the home is its dining room, surrounded on three sides with floor-to-ceiling windows affording lovely views of the trees and foliage. The dining room adjoins a spacious living room with an oversized fireplace and a cheery kitchen with a skylight. The mid-century modern design is emphasized by redwood siding on the exterior, wood paneling in the living and dining rooms, and large ceiling beams throughout. The principal bedroom features garden views and a large en-suite bathroom and dressing room. A walkway around the home offers more views of nature; often spotted are turkey and deer. There is ample parking on the street and driveway, and a storage room adjoins the house. The home is being sold "as-is".
