30 Las Cascadas Rd

On the market for the first time in 80 years, this treasured 2.04± acre Orinda Country Club estate is ready for a new owner to create their dream home! Owned and loved by one family, this oak-studded property was transformed from an empty lot into a magical oasis and was the backdrop of many family gatherings and celebrations. This charming, ranch-style home was built in 1941 and was remodeled and expanded throughout the years. The property also includes a two-bedroom guest cottage with separate, gated entrance. Over eight decades, the owner and a team of expert landscape designers created one of the most impressive private gardens in the Bay Area. Featured in several publications, the grounds showcase an expansive display of horticulture and a thoughtful array of seasonal plants that bloom year-round. This one-of-a-kind property includes meandering rock pathways, terraced gardens, four koi ponds, pool, and rose garden.
