Some homes have a setting that simply can't be replicate! Perched on the upper level, end unit, this one-bedroom condo backs directly to Las Trampas Creek and the trail, offering a treehouse-like retreat surrounded by birdsong, mature trees, and open sky. Privacy like this is rare. Serenity like this is priceless. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings and an abundance of natural light instantly set the tone. New laminate flooring and fresh paint run throughout, creating a move-in-ready canvas that feels bright and refreshing. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with new lighting, a breakfast bar, generous counter and cabinet space, and a full appliance package - microwave, refrigerator, oven, stovetop, and dishwasher all included. The open dining room, anchored by a modern chandelier, flows effortlessly into the spacious family room where a tiled wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and character. Step through the sliding glass doors onto your private shady patio and feel the stress of the day simply disappear. The corner-unit bedroom is a true standout - windows on two sides invite natural light and offer multiple views. The updated full bath features a new vanity, updated lighting, a floor-to-ceiling mirrored closet, and a separate shower/tub enclosure. A hallway coat closet provides additional storage, and the stacked washer and dryer are conveniently located in the entry hall - no trips to a laundromat, no shared machines. Central air conditioning ensures year-round comfort. The Villas community delivers resort-style amenities: elevator access, a gated pool and hot tub, clubhouse, and beautifully landscaped courtyards with scenic pathways. HOA dues of $580/month (effective 1/1/26) cover common area maintenance, management, reserves, water, sewer, trash, insurance, grounds, and pool/spa access - making ownership refreshingly low-maintenance. The location is equally impressive. Centrally positioned in Walnut Creek with quick access to Olympic Boulevard, downtown Walnut Creek, Broadway Plaza, Lafayette, Highway 24, I-680, and BART - you're connected to everything while feeling worlds away. Top-rated schools include Parkmead Elementary, Walnut Creek Intermediate, and Las Lomas High School. Nearby Civic Park, Walden Park, Larkey Park, and Heather Farms offer endless outdoor recreation right at your doorstep. Seller to pay the $36,111 for the Special Assessment at Close of Escrow.
