VIEW, CHARM, URBAN FARM on a sprawling 1/3-acre parcel! There is something truly unique about the way a house becomes a home, and this Redwood Heights property is the perfect canvas for your family's next chapter. From quiet, tree-lined streets to an immediate sense of community, this neighborhood brings back the ultimate local vibe where joggers, dog walkers, and strollers are a constant, friendly fixture of daily life. This is a special space where generations can gather and thrive. Inside, the home beautifully balances its '40s roots with sophisticated modern upgrades. The heart of the home has been thoughtfully elevated for the modern chef, featuring a recently updated kitchen with pristine quartz countertops, a designer tile backsplash, a massive Bertazzoni range, SS appliances, and elegant under-cabinet lighting. Also to be treasured are the original random-plank hardwood floors and floor-to-ceiling dual-pane windows that create a bright, open-plan living and dining area filled with natural light. Equally impressive is the main floor bathroom, luxuriously renovated from top to bottom to offer a spa-like retreat right at home. Downstairs, the home features a large family room with a fireplace and direct, level-out French door access to a new decomposed granite patio and a quaintly covered dining area. A 3rd bedroom with adjacent bath and a charming vintage kitchenette give this lower level incredible potential for a convenient in-law or guest suite. Step out onto the back deck to take in beautiful Bay views overlooking an absolute rarity for this area-an expansive 14,442 sq. ft. lot. Dotted with established fruit trees, this capacious parcel is a dream come true for anyone looking to cultivate a private urban farm, plant a sprawling vegetable garden, tend to an orchard, or raise chickens. After a day of enjoying this outdoor oasis, gather on the back patio, the perfect spot to sit around a crackling fire pit under a starry night sky. The location positions you perfectly to enjoy the absolute best of Oakland living. You're just minutes from the ever-popular Jordan Rd Park and one of Oakland's highest-rated schools, Redwood Heights Elementary. For quiet walks, discover the neighborhood's secret, no-cars-allowed wooded stretch of Rettig Road that runs peacefully along Peralta Creek. When you need a grander adventure, the near-infinite hiking trails of Redwood Regional Park are nearby, as well as seamless access to Highways 13 and 580 for an easy commute.

Rare opportunity to build your dream home on a private, nearly half-acre lot in Oakland's sought-after Lincoln Highlands neighborhood. This 19,602 sq ft parcel comes with thousands of dollars in professional due diligence already completed - including a geotechnical report, topographic survey, and schematic architectural plans for a stunning 3,300 sq ft modern home (3BR/3.5BA) by Turkel Design. Set back from the street along a long shared driveway with a permanent deeded easement, this lot offers remarkable privacy and seclusion while remaining minutes from Montclair Village, Hwy 13, and BART. Public water is available at the street and the lot is connected to public sewer - eliminating two of the biggest hurdles in hillside construction. Surrounded by million-dollar homes in one of Oakland's most desirable hillside neighborhoods, this is a rare chance to build significant equity from day one. The existing geotech report and professional survey alone save a buyer $5,000-$10,000.
