About this home
This is what happens when a renovation is done for living, not for selling. Reimagined from top to bottom as a passion project for its owners, 626 Caldwell Road is the kind of house you finish, settle into and enjoy for years. It was never renovated with resale in mind—which is precisely what makes the opportunity to own it now so unusual. The materials and finishes weren’t chosen to appeal to everyone; they were chosen because they were beautiful. The happy side effect? Your design game may improve simply by osmosis. Level entry opens to light-filled, open-concept living, dining and kitchen spaces with hardwood floors and level-out access to a flat backyard. The vaulted living room gets its point of view from an artisan plaster fireplace surround, while the kitchen pairs high-end appliances with under-cabinet lighting and a pot filler. The fireplace quietly waits its turn to make cool, dark winter days some of the best of the year. When the East Bay turns warm, A/C is ready too. Five bedrooms and four baths include two main-level ensuite bedrooms. The primary bath brings the style with terrazzo tile and a ceiling-mounted rain shower. Upstairs, a vaulted family room is big enough for movie nights, game days—or a second party happening while the adults downstairs pretend not to notice. An additional bedroom and full bath give guests, an older child or home office some welcome separation. Outside: sunny deck, flagstone dining patio, flat lawn, hot tub and terraced gardens. The two-car garage has moonlighted as a gym, while solar and an EV charger are already on duty. Then there’s the neighborhood. Lake Temescal is practically in your backyard, where mornings bring stroller-pushing boot campers and summer weekends might mean puppy classes, Tai Chi or a day at the lake. A 300+ home listserv offers everything from bumper crops of persimmons to outgrown bunk beds. Neighbors know one another and look out for the place they call home, with community security cameras, nightly patrol and underground power lines. And Halloween? The neighborhood goes all in—the kind of night adults anticipate almost as much as the kids. You may come for the house. Don’t be surprised if the neighborhood is what makes you never want to leave....
