820 Mariposa

Tucked in the heart of Lafayette, 820 Mariposa Rd is a charming single-story home that seamlessly blends warmth, character, and extraordinary potential. A sweeping wrap-around deck captures panoramic hill views while keeping you just steps from downtown Lafayette's beloved shops, restaurants, top-rated schools, and BART. Inside, rich hardwood floors and soaring vaulted ceilings with skylights fill the main living spaces with natural light. The open-concept kitchen features a center island and vaulted ceilings that flow effortlessly into the adjoining living room — perfect for everyday living and entertaining alike. A separate library with a fireplace and built-in bookcases offers a quiet retreat, while an upstairs loft provides a versatile study or office nook. The primary ensuite includes a generous wall of closets, complemented by two separate bathrooms. Step outside to a private backyard sanctuary shaded by majestic oak trees. A large covered patio creates an ideal year-round gathering space, while koi ponds, a greenhouse, hot tub, and playhouse add to the magic. A pool awaiting restoration rounds out this exceptional outdoor setting. With timeless appeal and limitless opportunity to make it your own, this Lafayette gem is not to be missed.
