Lincoln Highlands

Hidden Hillside Oasis. This thoughtfully updated Craftsman beckons with views, a large backyard and expansion potential in Lincoln Highlands, one of Oakland’s best-kept secret neighborhoods. 

An elevated position off the street imbues this sunny 3 plus bedroom, 1.5—bath home with a rare sense of peacefulness and privacy.  A covered porch welcomes you into the home where modern conveniences blend with 1921 period details along with bay views. The generously sized living room boasts a large picture window that frames stunning bay views and bathes the entire space in natural light. A classic brick fireplace with built-in bookcases adds timeless charm. New lighting fixtures and hardware throughout have been carefully balanced with original elements, such as the oak matchstick hardwood floors. The eat-in kitchen, recently refreshed with newer stainless steel appliances, new designer tile flooring, quartz countertops and backsplash, is spacious enough for a small breakfast table. Among the home’s most significant upgrades: new electrical wiring throughout, a tankless water heater, a Nest thermostat, and a newer forced air furnace  with central air conditioning.

Both bathrooms have been modernized with new tile, vanities, and fixtures. The larger bathroom features a shower-over-tub combination, while the unique "Jack and Jill" layout of the other two bedrooms, connected by a shared half bath, provides added practicality and versatility. A third bedroom, ideal for a home office, offers a quiet retreat with ample closet space. An attached garage under the house includes an adjoining bonus flex space that could be used as an art room, gym or even second home office. 

The true star of the show, is the expansive backyard and separate office / studio. Featuring a mix of flat, usable grassy areas with mature fruit trees and raised vegetable planter boxes, and adjacent office / studio, this unique terraced outdoor space makes you feel as if you are living on top of the world, perfect for working from home in a quiet peaceful environment, entertaining or simply relaxing surrounded by nature. An existing stamped concrete patio and outdoor fireplace provides a solid foundation for creating your dream outdoor living area. Expansive bay views from the upper play space offers a great opportunity for fun and enjoyment.  Possibilities also exist for a future ADU or even 2nd home or structures. 

And the location is second to none with easy access to Highways 13 and 580, and mere minutes from Montclair, Dimond/Laurel, Woodminster, and Joaquin Miller Regional Park.
