If you've been dreaming of a single-story home with room to breathe, garden, and truly live outdoors — this is it. Set on a rare corner lot of nearly ½ acre in the coveted Walnut Heights neighborhood, this home delivers the kind of land and privacy that's nearly impossible to find this close to downtown Walnut Creek — with lot size that also opens the door for future expansion or an ADU. The expansive backyard is a gardener's and entertainer's paradise: raised garden beds, tranquil pond, sports court, and a large patio made for long evenings outside. A versatile detached room handles hobbies, a home office, or whatever your lifestyle demands. Inside, the open-concept layout flows effortlessly — hardwood floors throughout, a chef's kitchen anchored by a 6-burner Viking range and island seating for five, and a primary suite with direct backyard access. Three additional bedrooms, updated baths, thoughtful storage, and a fully owned solar system — recently installed, zero lease to inherit, and built to meaningfully cut your monthly energy costs for years to come. Top-rated Walnut Creek schools, walkable to Walnut Heights Elementary, and minutes to BART and downtown. If this sounds like home, it probably is.
