Welcome to 10 El Sueno!
10 El Sueno is a one of a kind Orinda Country Club home. This expansive 1.1 acre property is situated on the 8th and 9th holes of the Orinda Country Club golf course. Set off of a cul-de-sac, the long driveway provides unparalleled privacy. The house was built in 1949 and remodeled in 2018 by San Francisco architect Nick Noyes. The airy chef's kitchen includes custom cabinetry, a Carrara marble island and counters, top of the line appliances and a walk-in pantry.
The remodeled house includes a large living room with vaulted ceilings, formal dining room, media room, powder room, and a stunning breakfast room with wraparound windows. The charming U-shaped house has seven sets of French doors that open up to two courtyards, a sparkling saltwater pool, and a shaded cabana. This spectacular lot offers unobstructed views of the golf course, the Berkeley hills, beautiful sunsets, and the San Francisco fog rolling in.
