Welcome to this spectacular, custom-built home by builder Doug Allinger who built this home for his family. Eight years in the making. He worked together with architect Carr Jones to create their intricate, unique styles worldwide. Doug was also the builder of the infamous Yogurt Park in downtown Walnut Creek using resourced and salvaged rubble from the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Just take a look and you will see the resemblance of the soaring ceilings and trademark turret in the entranceway. With incredible attention to detail and quality craftsmanship you will find throughout, gorgeous maple floors, hand-milled redwood beams and custom laid brickwork. Graced with three bedrooms and two and a half baths, there is a huge open kitchen and family room for nights of entertaining. The tranquil back yard is set with stunning gardens and fenced walkways, embraced by oaks. At the top of the hill boasts a large gazebo for watching sunsets and more adventures. Perched on over one full acre, don't miss the spectacular views from the gazebo at the top of the hill! A very unique, well cared for home. Sold by the second owners since it was built in 1983.
