Orinda Country Club
Defined by its striking diagonal wood siding, expansive windows, and thoughtful integration with the natural surroundings, this custom-built residence is a true architectural gem. Designed and constructed by Lemkuhl Construction, with interior design guidance over the years from John Wheatman & Associates, this two-story home embodies quality craftsmanship, sophistication, and a seamless connection to nature.
Offering 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms—including two ensuite retreats—the home lives is a true retreat. The vaulted living room, wrapped in warm diagonal wood detail, features a statement fireplace with a cement surround, wood mantel, and raised hearth. A dramatic wall of picture windows frames sweeping views of the Orinda hills, while hardwood floors and floating cedar shelving in the upstairs loft create a refined modern aesthetic.
The dining room blends functionality with sleek design, with custom built-ins with open shelving, bar sink and wood cabinetry are tucked behind slatted wood doors for a clean, understated look. The adjacent light and bright kitchen features walnut cabinetry, Corian countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, nice since pantry and an open pass-through counter space to the dining area—perfect for entertaining.
On the lower level, an ensuite bedroom opens to a private deck, creating a serene hideaway immersed in the landscape; ideal for guest. Upstairs, the light-filled loft reflects Wheatman’s philosophy of beauty, joy, and peace—a space equally suited for work, relaxation, or contemplation. Two additional bedrooms share a stylish hall bath, while the spacious primary suite offers a private deck, large walk-in closet, and practical bath with dual sinks, great storage, separate stall shower, and water closet.
Every space emphasizes the home’s guiding design principle: blending indoors with outdoors. Multiple decks and walls windows that draw in natural light, oak-studded hillside views, and the restorative beauty of nature.
Just minutes from Orinda Country Club, Lake Cascade, trails, restaurants, and top-rated Orinda schools, this home offers the perfect balance of architectural significance, modern living, and an exceptional location—only 20 minutes from downtown San Francisco.
