Property Description
Welcome to 70 St. James Place — a beautifully reimagined single-story residence tucked on one of Piedmont’s most coveted streets. Following an extensive post-fire rebuild, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home delivers new-construction quality within a beloved, tree-lined neighborhood. Soaring ceilings, wide-plank hardwood floors, and an open living-dining layout flow seamlessly to a private backyard with decks perfect for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen is fully appointed — gas range, dishwasher, disposal, refrigerator, and generous counter space. Two wood-burning fireplaces add warmth and character. A full basement offers abundant storage or flex space. Owned Solar panels ready for connection to keep utility costs low. The attached 2-car garage adds convenience and curb appeal. All of this sits within the prestigious Piedmont Unified School District — some of the best public schools in California — with no HOA fees. Offered as a Successor Trustee Sale. Vacant and easy to show. A rare opportunity to own a turnkey Piedmont home at this price point.
