1609 Poplar Drive
Walnut Creek, CA 94595

 
Located in the friendly community of “Parkmead Oaks”, a charming neighborhood with top rated schools.  This tree lined street is away from the hustle and bustle, yet walking distance to 12 years of schools, shopping, restaurants and public transportation.

If you have looked at other Walnut Creek homes, your excitement often turns to disappointment when you realize there is no central heat or air, or the home feels closed and claustrophobic, because they are. Many are vintage with original windows or there is no landscape. But not so here. You absolutely have not seen-another home with so much potential.  If serenity is what you crave, this home is perfect for you. This family home is ready for you to enjoy the sanctity it offers. There are mature trees and various other established plants.

 

Upon entering, one will notice the hardwood style flooring and open floor plan. Next, you will likely notice the “see-through” perspective that pulls your eye to the outdoors. Many of the views are framed by the dual pane windows.   The kitchen and dining room windows provide plenty of natural light, and serve up a nice view of the terraced yard areas, a private backyard sanctuary of mature trees & colorful foliage!  The glass slider door provides access to the private patio area where you can enjoy your morning cup of coffee.

Don’t miss the separate large bonus room, ideal for an office, studio or a man-cave.   Some updating has already been done as evidenced by the Central HVAC and updated bath.  Natural landscape with meandering pathways to various areas really comes alive in the springtime.

 

Want to make guests feel at ease when they come for dinner?  There is a kitchen bar area. Serve them a glass of wine and have them sit at the kitchen bar while you chop ingredients and prepare a fun meal.  Then whisk guests to the patio to enjoy the terraced landscape.  Light some yard torches, grill the steaks and have dinner outside.  Then grab some dessert, head inside, and pop in a movie by the fireplace.

The large irregular lot is perfect for vegetable gardens and or room for home expansion.

Don’t forget what it means to live in this part of town.  You could get by at this location without needing a car for weeks at a time.  Think about this for a moment – imagine what you will do when friends come to town to visit you. Almost every fun, cool and hip thing to do in Walnut Creek is just a few blocks away.  There are gourmet grocers, dining, shopping and sports bars…and seasonal celebrations and live music venues, with park and recreation events close by.  Just a few minutes’ drive to BART with easy access to Hwy 680, North & South.  Nearby hike and bike trails run throughout the county.

  

Imagine how nice it will be to stand at your porch and wave to the other parents in their cars driving their kids to school, while watching your kids walk 200 feet to the school grounds.  Kindergarten through 12th grade are walking distance from this home.
