786 View Dr Pleasanton, CA, 94566
Neighborhood: Castlewood | NoOff the market 4 beds 4 full + 1 half baths 3,645 sqft
Quite possibly the only “Storybook” house in the Tri-Valley area, built in 1927 by renowned architect, W. R. Yelland, as a country home for a Berkeley family. The Pleasanton Weekly described the home as “a house that makes you smile.” It has many whimsical features such as gargoyles that spout rainwater. There have only been 4 owners. The current owners did extensive remodeling & rebuilt the foundation to conform to seismic standards while preserving historic design & structure. At nearly 800 feet elevation the property has beautiful views of the valley. The property is one of the larger & more private lots (1.5 acres +/-) in the Castlewood area. It is located on a cul-de-sac & abuts the 15th hole of the Castlewood Golf Course. Only 1.5 miles from I680. Minutes from highly rated schools, shops, restaurants, BART and more!
