About This Home

Tucked into the Montclair hills, 6944 Snake Rd brings together mid-century modern character, a welcome sense of privacy, and sweeping Bay and SF views. With expansive outlooks on one side and a private, newly landscaped yard on the other, the home offers the best of both worlds: a place to take in spectacular sunsets and city lights, and a sheltered garden retreat for sunny afternoons, outdoor dining, and warm-weather gatherings. Multiple decks and inviting outdoor spaces extend the home's living footprint, creating an effortless connection between indoors and out, with a place to enjoy the setting at virtually any time of day.
The main level is designed for connection and entertaining, with a light-filled living room, dining area, and kitchen that flow naturally together. The kitchen opens to the dining area, which connects directly to a deck and yard, making it easy to move between cooking, dining, and relaxing outdoors. Whether hosting friends for dinner, enjoying a morning coffee in the garden, or unwinding on the view deck at sunset, the home's outdoor spaces feel like natural extensions of the interior.

The main-level primary suite enjoys its own walk-in closet, full bath, and access to the view deck, bringing the scenery into a more private setting. A second bedroom and full hall bath complete the main level, offering flexibility for guests, family, or a home office. Downstairs, a spacious family room or den with fireplace offers a wonderful counterpoint to the open, social spaces above. Tucked away from the main living areas, it's an ideal retreat for movie nights, quiet evenings, a playroom, or a more intimate place to gather. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a dedicated laundry room with washer and dryer complete this level. A small deck with stairs connects to the backyard, while generous closets, built-in cabinetry, and a large two-car garage provide welcome storage and utility. 

With its mid-century modern architecture, flexible two-level layout, and seamless connection to the outdoors, this Montclair home offers a distinctive balance of openness and privacy. Montclair Village, freeway access, tennis courts, and an elementary school are all nearby, keeping neighborhood conveniences within easy reach. From sunset views over the Bay to leisurely afternoons in the garden, 6944 Snake Rd is a home that invites you to spread out, settle in, and enjoy every side of its beautiful setting.

Explore the Neighborhood

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.
