Property Description

NEW PRICE – EXCEPTIONAL OPPORTUNITY! Escape to your own private retreat with a distinctive “Tahoe in Martinez” feel. Set on approximately 1.01 flat acres surrounded by mature trees, this recently renovated property offers a rare combination of space, privacy, versatility and modern living that is increasingly difficult to find in the East Bay. Expansive outdoor space, a private pool, detached 4-car garage and exceptional parking add to the property’s unique appeal—all while remaining convenient to nearby cities and amenities. Designed for easy indoor/outdoor living and entertaining, the light-filled home features an open-concept layout, expansive windows and extensive tile and engineered wood flooring. Large gathering spaces flow naturally toward the covered patio, pool and sprawling grounds, creating an inviting setting for everyday living, entertaining, outdoor dining and enjoying the property's peaceful surroundings. The flat, usable acreage is a defining feature of the property. Beyond the pool and covered patio, the grounds provide abundant open space and flexibility for a variety of outdoor uses and future possibilities, subject to applicable regulations and approvals. Mature landscaping, occasional visits from deer and frequent hummingbirds add to the private, retreat-like atmosphere. Recent renovations and capital improvements further enhance the property, including updated kitchen cabinetry, ductwork and driveway improvements. A detached 4-car garage, expansive flat driveway with ample parking and room for RVs or boats, two large storage sheds and secondary access via a side easement provide outstanding flexibility for vehicles, hobbies, equipment and storage. An irrigation well provides a dedicated water source for landscaping and helps maintain the lush setting. Located in the scenic Alhambra Valley area of unincorporated Martinez, the property offers a peaceful, country-like lifestyle. Naturalist John Muir made this valley his home in the 1880s, while the area's historic pear and plum orchards helped shape its unique character. Despite its secluded setting, the property is conveniently located near Lafayette, downtown Martinez, shopping, dining and everyday amenities. Highway 4, Interstate 680 and nearby BART provide convenient connections throughout the greater Bay Area. First time ever offered for sale, this is a rare opportunity to own approximately one flat acre offering privacy, usable outdoor space, a swimming pool, extensive parkin
