Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Private, Peaceful & Beautifully Reimagined Single-Story Rancher in Burton Valley Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and backing to open space, 3237 Driftwood Drive is a peaceful and private retreat surrounded by mature landscaping in the heart of Burton Valley. This beautifully updated four-bedroom, two-bathroom single-story home with a spacious three-car garage has been thoughtfully transformed for modern living. Soaring ceilings in the main living space are an unexpected architectural feature, creating incredible volume, abundant natural light, and an airy sense of scale. The updated kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring a Wolf range, built-in desk, peninsula seating, ample cabinetry, and generous prep space. The kitchen flows easily into the adjacent formal dining area, where views of the rear yard create a beautiful backdrop for everything from casual family dinners to holiday gatherings. The inviting living space is anchored by a new gas fireplace insert, adding warmth and ambiance, while large windows frame the surrounding greenery and serene outdoor setting. Outside, the mature backyard feels like a private sanctuary. With open space directly beyond the property, established landscaping, fruit trees, and plenty of room for both play and gardening, the yard offers a wonderful sense of seclusion and connection to nature. Additional highlights include hardwood floors throughout, a new roof (2025), remodeled bathrooms, a large storage shed, and a three-car garage that could be converted into additional living space. Enjoy the tranquility of this special setting while remaining just minutes from downtown Lafayette, BART, and Highways 24 and 680, with access to Lafayette's award-winning schools.
