550 Silverado Dr

Nestled in Lafayette's coveted Burton Valley neighborhood, this lovingly maintained home offers timeless character and an exceptional opportunity to personalize a classic California ranch in one of the East Bay's most sought-after communities. Just blocks from Burton Valley Elementary School and Rancho Colorados Swim & Tennis Club, this prime location offers top-rated schools, neighborhood amenities, and an unmatched sense of community. Inside you will find GORGEOUS random plank hardwood flooring throughout the main living areas, while traditional hardwood flooring appears to extend throughout the bedrooms under the carpet. The spacious living room showcases dramatic vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, a traditional brick fireplace and abundant natural light. The kitchen features black granite countertops, a gas cooktop, a sunny breakfast nook and an adjoining family room with a cozy wood-burning stove. The formal dining room is filled with natural light and opens to the backyard patio through a sliding glass door, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. The generously sized hall bath offers a large vanity and tub/shower combination. The primary suite features a cozy en suite bath, two large closets and a sliding glass door leading to the rear deck, a perfect place for a peaceful moment! One secondary bedroom includes a charming built-in window seat, while another offers custom built-in bookshelves and a desk. Lovingly cared for and primarily in original condition, this home has been thoughtfully maintained over the years. Most windows and sliding glass doors have been upgraded with quality Pella replacements. Additional improvements include an energy efficient tankless water heater, updated ductwork and a HVAC system replaced approximately one year ago, allowing the new owner to focus on cosmetic updates and make it their own. The landscaped backyard features mature trees, a spacious storage shed tucked along the side yard, a brick planter with bird bath, a separate fenced garden utility area with a Generac backup generator. The two-car garage offers abundant built-in storage. Enjoy the Burton Valley lifestyle with nearby parks, scenic trails, neighborhood swim clubs, downtown Lafayette, BART, Highway 24 and everything that makes this one of the Bay Area's most desirable places to call home.
