Property Detail

Description

Built in 1954 by Cliff May, the visionary architect who pioneered the California Ranch-style house, 840 Broadmoor Court underwent an extraordinary decade-long transformation (2014-2025) with John K. Anderson's comprehensive remodel. Nestled near Lafayette Moraga Regional Trail and downtown, this rare property serves award-winning schools. The restoration celebrates signature Cliff May elements—soaring beamed ceilings, wood paneling, expansive windows—while raising the roof two feet for loft spaces. Sophisticated materials including Heath Ceramics, custom steel, marble, and European White Oak honor mid-century character. Moroccan limestone counters, custom millwork, Dornbracht fixtures, and Miele appliances define the gourmet kitchen. Messana Radiant heating ensures comfort throughout. Environmental features include expanded solar, Tesla Powerwalls, and saltwater pool. Seamless indoor-outdoor living features Vitrocsa glass walls, Lynx outdoor kitchen, firepit, and Japanese Maple courtyard with 78-year-old specimens. Recent enhancements include SpacePak systems, motorized screens, and Savant smart controls. This is Cliff May's California Ranch legacy, masterfully updated for sophisticated modern living.
