Set behind a private, landscaped courtyard, this thoughtfully updated 1924 Oakmore home is light-filled, inspiring, and designed for the many rhythms of everyday life. A large picture window welcomes abundant natural light into the open living and dining room, where a custom built-in alcove offers a cozy place to read, gather or unwind. The refreshed kitchen features stainless-steel appliances and a custom breakfast nook with integrated cabinetry and bench storage. Two bedrooms, a full bath, laundry and a sun-filled bonus room complete the main level. Wrapped in deep green wainscoting, the bonus room can easily become an office, reading room or quiet retreat for mornings or after hours. An interior connection allows the main and lower levels to live naturally as one generous home. Yet the lower level can also function independently as a legal ADU, with its own living and dining space, full kitchen, two bedrooms, full bath, dedicated laundry and two exterior entrances with direct access to the expansive backyard. This uncommon flexibility supports multigenerational living, extended stays, a quiet workspace or creative studio, without dictating any one way to use it. The outdoor spaces serve as natural extensions of the home. The front courtyard combines integrated seating with private landscaping to create a moment of zen. The multi-level back includes an upper deck, various patio areas, a flexible play space, and shaded gathering areas with plenty of room to garden, entertain, or play catch. Recent improvements include a new HVAC system with central air conditioning, thoughtfully integrated storage systems, and a gated driveway. Oakmore pairs a serene, leafy hillside and canyon setting with urban convenience. Dimond Park, the neighborhood library, local markets, cafés and restaurants are within walking distance, while Montclair Village has everything one needs and is only minutes away. Highway 13, AC Transit and several nearby BART stations make Oakland, San Francisco and the greater Bay Area easily accessible. 3954 Forest Hill Ave - built for today, ready for whatever’s next

Set confidently above the street on an oversized parcel, this is the sort of home that quietly recalibrates expectations of Lincoln Highlands. Its six-bedroom, five-bathroom footprint is uncharacteristic for the neighborhood, but the quality of the transformation leaves the more lasting impression. Contemporary architecture pairs with design-forward materials, exceptional craftsmanship, and a level of finish that feels deliberate rather than decorative - a home whose ambition is evident without ever becoming overstated. Natural light arrives from every direction, filling generously proportioned rooms giving the interiors an openness that changes subtly throughout the day. At the center of the home, a substantial kitchen island serves as both workspace and gathering place, surrounded by premium appliances, dual refrigeration, abundant storage, and carefully considered comforts. Every decision reflects a house designed not to impress, but to be lived in exceptionally well. The home's scale brings an uncommon degree of flexibility. The bed and bath count accommodates large or multigenerational households, while the lower-level efficiency sink and cabinetry creates opportunities for extended guests, older children seeking greater independence, a private workspace, or potential rental income. It is a floor plan capable of evolving alongside the people who live within it. The experience extends well beyond the walls. Three expansive decks create distinct places to entertain, dine, or retreat beneath the trees. A broad paved court functions equally well as additional parking, a basketball game, children's play space, or the backdrop for neighborhood gatherings. Beyond, a creek winds quietly through the rear of the property, where the landscape opens into something increasingly uncommon: meaningful land. There is room here for gardens, recreation, quiet exploration, or simply the luxury of having space to breathe. A two-car garage, extensive storage, and beautifully executed finishes complete a home whose greatest luxury is not measured in square footage alone, but in the breadth of possibilities it affords. Lincoln Highlands has long been valued for its quiet streets, established homes, and enduring sense of community. It is rare, however, to find a residence that combines this degree of scale, thoughtful design, exceptional craftsmanship, and expansive land into a single offering. This is the kind of home that reshapes what buyers imagine is possible here.
