Michael Dreyfus
Happy Valley Heaven
Happy Valley is the best neighborhood in Lafayette; Rose Lane is the best street in Happy Valley; and this is the best home on Rose Lane. Privacy and seclusion are the estate’s hallmarks. The home sits on a 10.89acre lot, surrounded on three sides by fenced hillsides and mature oaks, offering unparalleled privacy. Enter the estate through an electronic security gate, and proceed on a circular driveway past century-old heritage olive trees and a sea of lavender. The home was custom-built with exceptional craftsmanship by Branagh Development in 2018 to the specifications of a corporate CEO and his security advisors. Residents can leave the grounds and in minutes access Lafayette’s amenities and the best of the Bay Area. But, upon returning, hustle and bustle are left behind. Architectural brilliance and spacious design characterize the home, which boasts 11,370 square feet of sophisticated living space.

“If you want someone to have your best interest at heart then Sante is your broker! He guided us every step of the way to make sure we received top dollar for our home. He invested a ton of hours and energy to ensure we maximized our marketing and brought in a large amount of interested buyers. In addition, once we accepted an offer Sante made sure to follow up with the escrow company and even funded us earlier then the original closing date. It’s rare that I come on Yelp to write a review but I highly value good service and Sante is one of those rare brokers who believes in doing the right thing and building a relationship instead of a quick sale. Needless to say when it’s time to buy again we have our broker!”
