This rare Orinda 6BD/4BA Ranch-Style Home, with Two Bonus Units on more than half an acre of serene property abutting the Lafayette Reservoir open space, could be the perfect canvas for those seeking to create their own family compound or commune.

71 Rheem Blvd, which is nestled on a big and private flag lot with pool, set back well off of Rheem Blvd., greets visitors with a spacious mid-century vintage home with a large family room and 2nd story bedroom and bath addition, plus a bonus 1BD/1BA apartment, and separate studio apartment, and large garage.

The vintage home’s main living core features a vaulted-ceiling formal living room with fireplace and French doors to the covered patio and pool, formal dining room overlooking the rear yard, and large family room with fireplace that adjoins the kitchen.

The home’s sleeping quarters include a private primary suite, plus two additional bedrooms with a shared 2nd full bathroom nearby, all on the ground floor. Upstairs are three more ample bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, and 3rd full bath.

The outdoor spaces of this unique property are a true highlight: A covered patio spans the width of the home’s rear, leading to a sparkling pool surrounded by mature trees and garden beds. Multiple seating areas, a level lawn, and terraced landscaping offer endless possibilities for gardening, pets, and play.

Beyond the main house, two bonus units offer incredible flexibility—whether for extended family, guests, and more (buyers to verify permit history or possible uses for themselves). The lower level offers a cozy 1BD/1BA, while the studio above offers flexibility for more living space or a home office.

A large garage with room for multiple cars, hobbies and storage, plus a variety of adjoining areas for boat, RV or other adult toy storage, complete this comprehensive offering.

Excellent Orinda location, minutes from downtown Orinda, Orinda Park, and top-rated schools, as well as easy access to BART, Highway 24, and the Lafayette Reservoir's scenic hiking trails.

A rare opportunity to create a customized retreat in a coveted setting—don’t miss this one!
