Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-du-sac in Lafayette's Hidden Valley, this newly updated 1940s Cape Cod offers genuine character, a storybook setting, and timeless building materials. A gentle creek meanders along the rear of the property, lending a sense of seclusion that feels a world away; yet is minutes from downtown, top-rated schools, freeways & public transit. Inside, the home offers four bedrooms and two full bathrooms thoughtfully arranged for flexibility. One bedroom serves as a cozy den, while another opens to a carpeted playroom, a delightful retreat for children. Period details are lovingly preserved with built-in shelving, phone niche, and rich solid oak & Douglas fir floors that speak to the home's authentic craftsmanship. At the heart of the home, a spacious eat-in kitchen and sunlit dining room with French doors to the rear yard create a natural gathering space. The adjacent living room is anchored by a Napoleon wood-burning fireplace. Outdoor living is equally compelling. A front porch with pergola sets a welcoming tone, while the rear deck, flagstone sitting area, and landscaped garden unfold gracefully toward a private creekside retreat. A detached one-car garage has been insulated and polished, offering excellent use as a studio or home office.
