Timeless Design and Modern sophistication
Perched above Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood with breathtaking panoramic views, this luminous residence illustrates a harmonious blend of timeless design and modern sophistication. Originally constructed in 1995 by the acclaimed architectural firm Rynerson O’Brien, this home exemplifies the timeless appeal of Craftsman design, thoughtfully crafted and modernized with an emphasis on both beauty and enduring quality.
At the heart of the home, the main level unfolds with an open layout that flows effortlessly between the living room, dining area, and a family room imbued with understated elegance. Anchoring this space is a kitchen redesigned in 2021 to exude both style and functionality. Custom solid wood inset cabinetry and Vadara quartz countertops create a refined yet approachable aesthetic, while French doors open onto a multi-tiered backyard that stands as a testament to masterful landscape design. Off the kitchen is the family room, complete with a chic bar nook, which invites intimate gatherings or moments of quiet relaxation. Its French doors lead to a secluded patio, a serene escape within the property. Also on this level is a guest bedroom and full bath ensuring privacy and convenience.
Upstairs, the primary suite offers a sanctuary of luxury. The spa-inspired ensuite bathroom features bespoke finishes, and the generously sized walk-in closet provides ample space for even the most curated wardrobe. Two additional bedrooms on this floor are equally well-appointed, complemented by a beautifully designed hall bath. Direct access to the garden connects this level to the property’s outdoor splendor, inviting a sense of retreat. The lower level expands the possibilities of this home with a versatile family room, a full bathroom, and a fifth bedroom. Whether envisioned as a media lounge, a private office, or ADU, this level offers endless opportunities to shape the space to suit any lifestyle. Completing the home is a fully equipped laundry room, an attached two-car garage with Tesla charging station, and additional off-street parking.
The property’s outdoor spaces are nothing short of transformative. A complete backyard renovation in 2023 reimagined the landscape as an architectural marvel. Designed by a renowned firm, the tiered backyard boasts poured concrete retaining walls, rebuilt rock walls, composite decking with custom wood and wire railings, and a lush artificial lawn. From intimate dinners under the stars to vibrant soirées, this space is the epitome of outdoor living.
This Oakland gem is more than a home; it is a narrative of refined living, where every detail has been considered and every element elevated. With its stunning vistas, exquisite craftsmanship, and seamless integration of form and function, it stands as a testament to the art of modern living. Positioned near fine dining in Rockridge, top-rated schools, and quick freeway access to San Francisco, its location stands out as much as its quality.
