Surrounded by other gracious homes and accessed through a winding path amidst a magical front garden, this beautiful 1940's residence is located in the quiet Maxwell Park neighborhood in Oakland.

This family residence enjoys distinctive mid-century architectural features surrounded by year-round blooming gardens. A functional and contemporary two-level floor plan of approximately 1,948 square feet, beautifully refinished hardwood floors, softly colored walls and warm cascading natural light clearly define the palate from which the entire home draws.

Featuring three ample bedrooms, two full baths, a sunny living room/dining room combination, a large and functional kitchen and a lower level family room this warm and comfortable residence presents the convenience of magical outdoor gardens, a south-facing view deck and an open garden -level terrace.

Beyond the entrance door, a handsome reception foyer introduces the adjoining south-facing living and dining rooms. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace and picture windows with views of the lush rear gardens. The dining room features direct access to the view deck and gardens as well as a discreet transition to the home's kitchen. Facing north, the kitchen enjoys most modern conveniences and direct views of the front garden.



Privately set apart from the public areas of the home, this level is completed with two family bedrooms and one full bath. Both bedrooms enjoy ample built-in closets, hardwood floors and broad picture windows.

Adding to the overall appeal of this home is a functional and well thought out lower level. Ideal as guest quarters or in-law apartment, this level presents one bedroom, one full bath, an open and sunny living area with direct garden access, fireplace, and bonus workshop room. A two-car garage, a maintenance-free cemented driveway, new paint and roof, and a beautiful fruit tree orchard create a wonderful place to call home.
