West-side Alamo Craftsman-style custom rebuilt residence on a half-acre
Craftsman-style architecture behind a grand circular paver driveway on a prominent half-acre in a cul-de-sac shines in Alamo’s coveted west side. Welcome to 5 Los Alamos Court, with steps to the Iron Horse Trail, this neighborhood is also conveniently close to Hap Magee Ranch Park, Las Trampas Ridgeline trails, downtown and top-rated schools.
This custom-rebuilt residence is brilliantly crafted with attention to every detail throughout its approximately 3,800 square feet of living space. Five bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms are featured in addition to elegant formal living and dining rooms, a well-appointed chef’s dream kitchen, and its adjacent family room.
The many classic features include hickory floors, Milgard wood-encased windows, designer lighting, extensive millwork, solid core, 8-foot raised paneled interior doors with upgraded door hardware, recessed lighting, double-insulated walls and custom Crystal cabinetry. A Peter Koenig-designed landscape showcases lush rose gardens, brick patios, pergolas and custom lighting around a sparkling pool and spa.
Beyond the inviting foyer illuminated by a custom chandelier are the formal living and dining rooms, each featuring beautifully crafted millwork, including wainscot and ceiling accents. Open the French doors in the dining room to extend this elegant entertaining space into the lush gardens and patio.
Premium custom-made soft-closing Crystal cabinets with extensive pullouts, spice racks and upper glass-faced doors wrap around the dream kitchen, featuring an exposed-beam ceiling with recessed lighting. Caesarstone counters with a marble tile backsplash are featured, plus more prep space on the large island/breakfast bar with seating for four. Two decorative pendants illuminate the island. Stainless appliances include a Thermador four-burner gas range with a grill, a Thermador dishwasher, a KitchenAid side-by-side refrigerator, a wine refrigerator and a Sharp microwave/warmer. The kitchen is open to the family room, and the casual dining nook has a decorative chandelier and French doors open to the backyard.
A dramatic exposed-beam vaulted ceiling in the family room adds volume to the already sizable room anchored by a gas fireplace. Multiple sets of French doors from this room create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and welcome abundant natural light.
The primary suite is located behind double doors and is a luxurious retreat with a separate sitting room, a vaulted exposed beam ceiling, a large walk-in closet, recessed lighting, and a ceiling fan. The en suite is equally beautiful and detailed in Carrera marble, including tiled wainscot walls and a tile floor. There are two vanities, custom lighting and tilt mirrors, an oversize stall shower, and private access to the pool and spa.
Two additional bedrooms in one wing share a full bathroom with Carrera marble finishes. This bathroom also has backyard access. Two more bedrooms in a private wing share a bathroom with a dual-sink vanity, wainscot tiled walls and an oversize stall shower. All the bedrooms have sizable closets.
Additional features include a four-car garage with built-in cabinetry, dual HVAC, a Nest thermostat, a security alarm and a laundry room with Caesarstone counters and storage. A powder room features a pedestal sink, a custom mirror and custom lighting.
Enjoy the peaceful rural setting while still being about a mile from the Alamo Plaza shopping, about 2 miles to downtown Danville and near top-rated San Ramon Valley Unified School District schools, including 1.5 miles to Stone Valley Middle School and San Ramon Valley High School, and within walking distance to Rancho Romero Elementary School.
