Room With a View: Lafayette Home for Sale Looks Like a Scene From France

We are surrounded by so much natural beauty in the Bay Area we decided that this week's real estate feature should focus on properties that might offer the buyer a great view.

And if that's not possible — or affordable — there's always the possibility of a "partial view" as a consolation prize.

In Lafayette we found this four-bedroom, three-bath property that looks like a French country villa, with views of mountains, forests and wide open spaces.

The 6,200-square-foot home is listed at $2.4 million.
