Property Description

*TRANSPARENT PRICE* Floor-to-ceiling glass frames the front of this Craftsman-inspired hillside home, putting the valley below, mature oaks, and some of Orinda's best sunsets on full display from the main living level. The open kitchen and family room open to an enclosed patio, keeping the indoor-outdoor connection going year-round. The two-level layout puts one bedroom and full bath on each floor, with the lower level also offering a private deck, separate laundry, and generous storage — ideal for multigenerational living or a guest suite with real separation. 7 Knickerbocker Lane is a rare find in Oak Springs: a home with genuine character, views that don't quit, and flexibility that most properties in this price range simply don't offer. Minutes to BART, Orinda Theatre, top-rated schools, and Hwy 24.
