80 Tara Rd

Located in the heart of Glorietta, this beautiful 3,072 sq ft California classic blends timeless traditional style with modern comfort, all set on a generous 0.3581-acre lot just minutes from downtown Orinda and Glorietta Elementary. From the moment you arrive, the lush front landscaping creates a warm and inviting first impression. Inside, the home opens to a formal dining room overlooking the gardens and an elegant living room featuring a fireplace and French doors that lead to an expansive deck—perfect for enjoying the stunning backyard and serene surroundings. This updated Orinda rancher offers an ideal balance of sophistication and livability. The spacious primary retreat features vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and French doors that open to a private deck—an ideal spot for quiet mornings or evening relaxation, and a spa-like bathroom. Three additional bedrooms share a beautifully updated bath, with one of the bedrooms offering direct deck access. At the heart of the home, the kitchen and great room are designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining, with abundant natural light, expansive windows, and French doors that open to the oversized deck and large grassy yard. The updated kitchen includes a generous island with stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a new Sub-Zero refrigerator. A separate family room and en-suite office—easily used as a guest suite—provide exceptional flexibility for working from home, hosting visitors, or accommodating extended family. There is an abundance of storage space and one of the larger spaces offers a separate entrance to be used for garden storage or even a wine room.
