Rockridge
Charming shingled New England-style home in the heart of Rockridge that is actually three homes in one: the expansive three-story front home, and two bright little houses in back that wrap around a giant Oakland oak. One block away you’ll find the gourmet markets, coffee houses, and independent boutiques that line College Avenue, plus BART and easy freeway access. And, local lore—and several neighbors—attest that the band Jefferson Airplane lived here in the sixties…
Enter the front home via a tall wooden gate spilling over with honeysuckle. French doors beckon from an ample porch, and a more formal entry on the side takes you into a large living room with oak flooring, fireplace, high ceilings, and large original paned windows. The dining room looks out to a garden of mature camellia bushes, and there’s an adjacent kitchen nook with built-in benches. Upstairs, find three bedrooms and a recently remodeled bathroom with marble tile, and then up again to a third floor dream space of light and views. Both the 2-bedroom and single-bedroom units in the back match the front home with their shingled exteriors, natural light, and spaciousness.

Neighborhood

Cross Alcatraz Avenue, which divides Oakland and Berkeley, and you’ll find yourself in Rockridge, one of Oakland's most desirable, charming, and convenient neighborhoods. Housing in Rockridge is a combination of charming bungalows, cottages, classic Arts and Crafts dwellings, and large brown-shingle houses. Its leafy streets are mainly residential.
Rockridge offers an easy commute into San Francisco via the Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station, as well as access to the University of California, Berkeley Campus. The 100-year-old, four-acre campus of the California College of Art and Crafts is nearby. Food-and-drink purveyors in Rockridge provide the best from around the world and local farms. Rockridge Market Hall, which takes its cue from the French Marché, offers numerous individual food and flower shops open to the sidewalk. Dozens of restaurants, cafes, and boutiques line bustling College Avenue, Rockridge's main drag.
