Expansive Bay and Hillside Views

The entry is level-in from the street, a welcome rarity in the hills that makes daily life simpler and the home more accessible for guests of any age. Enter and the view announces itself immediately. Expansive walls of glass pull the water and the hills directly into the living space, and the light shifts all day long — morning fog burning off below, afternoon sun across the Bay, and that moment in the evening when the city lights come on in the distance. It's a backdrop that makes an ordinary Tuesday feel like something more.

Modern kitchen with white cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a view of a dining area with large windows showing trees outside.

Open-Plan Living and Entertaining

The main level is open and connected, designed for the way people actually live and entertain. The chef's kitchen anchors one end with stone countertops, a generous center island, and premium appliances, with room for someone to keep cooking while everyone else gathers nearby. It flows into the dining area and on to the sunken living room, where a fireplace anchors the space and the glass wall does the rest.

An expansive view deck opens directly off the main level, running the length of the house and functioning as a true extension of the living space. This is where the home really comes into its own — long dinners that run past sunset, morning coffee before anyone else is up, and evenings when the fog settles into the canyon below and you find yourself watching that instead of anything on a screen.

A bedroom with a full bath and a separate powder room complete this level. It's a flexible arrangement — a comfortable guest room, a private home office with a door that closes, or a main-level bedroom for anyone who would rather not take the stairs.

Private Suites and Flexible Living Spaces

Downstairs, a thoughtful split-level design creates genuine separation without disconnecting the home. The primary suite is a retreat in the truest sense, with a spa-inspired bathroom, a walk-in closet, and a private deck of its own overlooking the Bay. Step out with a cup of coffee and start the day with the water in front of you.

Two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom sit nearby, well suited to family, long-term guests, or whatever the household needs them to be.

The lower level also holds a spacious family room with a wet bar, its own bathroom, and a private exterior entrance. That last detail is what makes the space genuinely versatile. It works beautifully as a media room or second living area, but it functions just as well as an au pair suite, a multigenerational arrangement with independence built in, or a home office with its own entrance for clients.

A scenic overlook of a city and body of water with ships, hills in the background, and a bird flying in the foreground.

Comfort, Convenience & Connection

Behind the scenes, the home is as practical as it is beautiful. Owned solar keeps the energy costs down, and central air conditioning — still uncommon in the Oakland hills — makes the warm stretches genuinely comfortable. Hardwood floors run throughout, built-in audio is already wired in, and the attached two-car garage offers interior access, so groceries and gear come straight into the house.

Piedmont Pines puts you moments from the East Bay Regional Parks trail network, with miles of hiking and running that start just blocks from the door. Montclair Village and its restaurants, shops, and Sunday farmers market sit minutes down the hill, and Highway 13 and BART keep San Francisco and the rest of the Bay Area within easy reach.

Modern construction, generous and flexible space, and a view that changes with every hour of the day — this is a home that makes the most of exactly where it stands.
