967 3rd Street

Location, Location, Location! Spacious 4 bed, 3.5 bath, single-level home on a cul-de-sac available for rent in the Lafayette Trails neighborhood this January. Walk to Lafayette’s downtown restaurants, shopping, and BART. Kids can safely bike or walk to Lafayette’s highly-rated elementary and middle schools! This light-filled home was lovingly designed and lived in by an architect and has been meticulously maintained.

You’ll enjoy skylights throughout and windows facing the beauty of redwood trees lining your private, fully-fenced backyard. The custom kitchen is a cook’s dream with high end appliances, tons of counter space and storage, a walk-in pantry, and a built-in desk with windows facing the garden. The kitchen flows into the living and dining rooms and both the front and back decks, creating a large indoor/outdoor living space perfect for entertaining. The dining room has a long, built-in buffet with glass front cabinets, and the living room has a built-in entertainment console with surround sound.

There are four bedrooms on one level; the primary bedroom has a walk-in closet with a custom storage system, an en-suite bathroom, and french doors opening to a private deck; a second large bedroom also has an en-suite bath; and there are two additional bedrooms served by a hall bath. The finished, walk-out basement away from the bedrooms provides a bonus room great for kids and games.

The house has approximately 2,900 sq ft of living space, a two-car attached garage, and a large storage shed with shelving. Cost-saving perks include three-zone heating and A/C; whole house fan; solar panels; dual-pane windows; and weekly yard maintenance paid by the owner. All appliances, including a brand new washer/dryer and an extra freezer and refrigerator in the garage, are included. Additional photos to come in late December when the owner moves out. Managed by a private owner with pride of ownership looking for a tenant that will enjoy and take care of the home.
