Last sold for $1.65m in 2007, this lot is now offered at an incredible deal. It is one of the last lots in the upper El Toyonal neighborhood of Orinda to have all utilities, including CCCSD sewer, fiber optic internet, EBMUD water, and PG&E available for use! This lot has a few possible building sites, (buyer to verify) the one closest to Lomas Cantadas could offer sweeping views of Mt. Diablo and the rolling foothills below. The other site next to the brand new $1.5m retaining wall offers views of the hills and forests, and has a long gentle slope down to a seasonal creek. There are beautiful small waterfalls that flow around and through this property in the winter. The lot offers possible access to the highly acclaimed Orinda public school system. The drive to Orinda Bart or Highway 24 is about 5 minutes, and the drive to UC Berkeley is only 11 minutes.
