The perfect place to call home
Perched above Montclair Village with sweeping San Francisco Bay views, 6425 Snake Road is a striking Mid-Century Modern home offering exceptional space, flexibility, and opportunity. With expansive outlooks stretching from downtown Oakland to the Berkeley Campanile—and, on a clear day, across three Bay Area bridges—the setting is as impressive as the home itself.
The main residence spans 2 generous levels with 6 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, an office, multiple living spaces, hardwood floors, expansive decks, 2 sets of laundry, and dramatic views throughout. The entry level is defined by soaring vaulted ceilings and multiple skylights that fill the home with natural light. An updated kitchen with Carrara marble countertops and a waterfall-edge island opens to the main living and entertaining spaces, while 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms provide comfortable single-level living. A dedicated office completes the functionality of this level for modern-day living.
Downstairs, 4 additional bedrooms and 2.5 updated bathrooms are joined by a spacious second living or media room, an adjacent kitchen, and a separate entrance. This thoughtful configuration creates remarkable versatility, allowing the home to function beautifully as one expansive residence or as distinct living areas with privacy and independence.
On the bottom level of this home is a bright and airy one-bedroom residence with its own entrance, beautifully renovated kitchen, open living floorplan leading to a gorgeous deck, full bathroom and laundry hookups.
The beautifully landscaped yard extends the home’s living spaces outdoors, with a gas fire pit, mature towering trees, expansive decks, hardscape, and a turf lawn creating multiple areas to gather, entertain, play, or simply enjoy the peaceful hillside setting. Tucked into the rear of the property is a distinctive detached bonus structure—an inspiring and private space perfectly suited for a home office, art studio, gym, playroom, or creative retreat.
Together, the property offers a rare opportunity for multigenerational living, extended family, co-living, guests, or even potential rental income. The main residence itself can be easily divided into two substantial living spaces, while the separate one-bedroom residence provides an additional layer of independence and flexibility. Additional conveniences include a 2-car side-by-side garage equipped with a Tesla charger, large storage room, fenced in facade for privacy and digital locks.
Whether envisioned as a spacious single-family retreat, a multigenerational compound, an income-producing property, or a creative shared-living arrangement, 6425 Snake Road offers an extraordinary combination of panoramic views, architectural character, beautifully designed outdoor spaces, and adaptable living in the Montclair hills, within the sought-after Montclair School District.

Tucked away in the wooded hills and winding streets above Oakland, Montclair is a small community with an appealing central shopping district. Sizable custom homes, along with a mix of Mediterranean, Craftsman, and contemporary-style homes are situated on forested lots, offering an elegant retreat from the city.
The Montclair Business District is a throwback to a simpler time before strip malls, megamalls, and big-box stores. Residents can find everything they need, from dry cleaning and groceries to restaurants. Local restaurant favorites include the Montclair Egg Shop, Flipper’s Gourmet Burgers, and Crogan’s Montclair Restaurant. Gourmet specialty items are available at Le Bonbon, and Farmstead Wine and Cheese. A farmers market on Sundays provides fresh local produce and baked goods. Montclair is home to fine-arts festivals throughout the year and a jazz festival in the late summer that enlivens the street scene.
