The other site next to the brand new $1.5m retaining wall offers views of the hills and forests, and has a long gentle slope down to a seasonal creek. There are beautiful small waterfalls that flow around and through this property in the winter. The lot offers possible access to the highly acclaimed Orinda public school system.
