About this property

Not an Eichler, but close. This beautifully renovated 1951 mid-century modern residence is tucked into a secluded gated enclave in Oakland's Lincoln Highlands, occupying almost 2/3 of an acre with sweeping San Francisco Bay views and exceptional privacy. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original architectural character, the home features a low-slung profile, flat roofline, deep cantilevered eaves, LEVEL-IN entry, expansive windows, Mondrian-inspired partition screens, and a striking monolithic brick hearth wall. Dutch doors open to a private entry courtyard and interiors filled with natural light, refinished hardwood floors, and Bay views to grab you from the front door. Connected living and dining spaces flow seamlessly outdoors on 2 sides. The remodeled eat-in kitchen features slim-shaker white oak cabinetry, cork flooring, Bosch 6-burner gas range, designer tile, open shelving, and an adjacent mudroom. A glass door opens to an expansive view deck overlooking the city skyline and Bay bridges. The main-level primary suite offers water views, walk-in closet, and an updated bath with Acacia vanity, wall-mounted toilet, terrazzo-style tile, and custom marble-accented shower. The flexible lower level, with private exterior entrance, provides guest or multi-generational living with a family room, brick fireplace, 2 additional bedrooms, refreshed bath, and oversized laundry room. Multiple outdoor spaces create a private sanctuary for entertaining and enjoying the surrounding landscape, including an entry courtyard, expansive wraparound dining terrace with Bay views, elevated viewing deck, and secluded lower retreat surrounded by mature trees with fruiting Orange, Olive, Loquat, Cherry, Quince, and Plum offering a nice surprise throughout. A massive lower parcel provides a rare opportunity to add a private orchard, private garden or potential future development (buyer to verify). Additional features include a brand-new high-efficiency forced-air furnace w/ AC-ready evaporator coil, 7.2KW owned solar, large paver-accented driveway with parking for several cars, and detached oversized 2-car garage w/ storage & 220V EV outlet. Conveniently located minutes from Montclair, Lake Merritt, Dimond, Laurel, Glenview, Woodminster, & Joaquin Miller Regional Park, w/ easy access to Highways 13 & 580. A rare combination of architectural character, privacy, views, usable land, & modern updates. RARE combo of security, privacy, views, flexibility & style. Not to miss.
