Our dear friends were looking to make a move, with an eye on where they’ll spend their years post-retirement. They had their sights set on Lafayette, focusing on a handful of specific zones within it. At first they took their time — after all, they intend this to be their forever home — but it didn’t take too long before the perfect property presented itself. We often say that when you put something out to the universe, it often doesn’t take long for it to manifest. Fittingly, this home is in the serene community of Happy Valley. The place is camera-ready already, but our clients have a few ideas on how they’ll make it absolutely perfect for them.

Filled with warmth and characteristic charm, this single level home has been updated to perfection with attractive architectural detailing and enhancements. Walls of glass invite the outdoors in with beautiful outlooks and an exceptional backyard retreat. Quality and craftsmanship are showcased throughout each space.
