Perched among the rolling hills of sought-after Clayton, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an incredible opportunity to create your dream home while building instant sweat equity. With 1,926 sq ft of living space and a functional floor plan, the home is filled with character and potential just waiting for a fresh vision.

Enter through the parquet-floored foyer into the formal living and dining room, highlighted by dramatic vaulted ceilings, multiple windows, and a striking floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. Separate from the main living area, the kitchen and adjoining family room are also bright and welcoming, featuring several windows and a sliding glass door leading to the side yard.

A downstairs bedroom and half bath offer flexibility for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional bedrooms plus a comfortable primary suite complete with a walk-in closet and peaceful hillside outlook.

While the home is in need of updating throughout, the bones, layout, and location make this a rare chance for first-time buyers, investors, or developers looking to unlock its full potential. Backing to a tranquil natural setting with hillside views, this diamond in the rough offers an exceptional opportunity to reimagine and restore.

Ideally located near scenic hiking trails, neighborhood parks, top-rated schools, downtown Clayton restaurants and shopping, Oakhurst Country Club, and convenient commuter routes, this home offers the perfect blend of opportunity, lifestyle, and location beneath the shadow of majestic Mt. Diablo. The desirable Dana Ridge community features greenbelt areas, RV parking availability, and a monthly HOA of $150, all within a peaceful, well-maintained setting that offers a true sense of community.
