SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Here is a rare opportunity for you to own a luxurious manor. Inspired by its peaceful setting, this magnificent hilltop estate is artfully designed with unmatched architectural detail and timeless appeal.

World-Class Locale
The quaint and peaceful City of Orinda is a family-oriented community of nearly 18,000 residents. Only 20 miles from downtown San Francisco, Orinda was voted #2 on Forbes Magazine's 2012 'America's Friendliest Towns' list. Area public schools consistently rank in the top 10% of California schools, and UC Berkeley is a short drive away.

Easy access to freeways and BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) is ideal for the working professional.
"This is truly a one-of-a-kind asset befitting today's discerning global citizen. Proximity to prestigious educational institutions, San Francisco Metro Area, ease of travel and rich cultural diversity are a few of the fine characteristics that the community offers. Purchasing this property is a stable luxury real estate investment within America's most innovative and currently red-hot tech hubs," states Mark Attarha, Managing Broker and Owner of Bay Sotheby's International Realty.

Eco-Friendly and Energy-Efficient
The Carriage House was constructed using wood beams reclaimed from a century old bridge from Utah's Great Salt Lake. Electricity for the estate is provided by a large automated solar panel that also features an emergency back-up generator. Lighting control systems throughout the property decrease energy costs and reduce carbon footprint as lights can be easily dimmed or automatically turned off depending on level of natural sunlight.
Your Own Private Sanctuary
Hand-forged iron gates that open to a curving, private driveway secure the secluded estate. The property is fully fenced and borders open space. A sophisticated, remotely accessible security system equipped with 22 strategically placed cameras monitors the estate 24/7.
