Be ready to be wowed by this entertainer's oasis! Over years of passion and precision, this home has been transformed into a one-of-a-kind sanctuary. An open-concept layout unites living, dining, and kitchen, where vaulted ceilings and skylights bathe every corner in sunlight. The kitchen—a masterpiece of form and function—flows seamlessly outdoors making the most of the expansive yard. The private quarters offer a serene primary suite, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath. Downstairs you’ll find a bonus room with Heath tile-adorned wet bar, full bath and interior access from the large garage. From the lower level, step out to the patio showcasing an imported Mugnaini pizza oven & built-in BBQ - the perfect spot for culinary exploration! The extraordinary backyard is designed for relaxation and revelry—it feels like a private venue—lush and layered, with fruit trees, berry patch, mature landscaping, and bocce court. Towards the top you’ll find a secret fire pit where you can enjoy the serene peacefulness of this rare and bucolic lot. Located just minutes from the Oakland Zoo, Chabot Golf Course, and scenic trails, yet nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac—more than a house, it’s a curated hideaway where life’s best moments unfold.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
