Description

Grand House on the Hill

Having inherited this historic Oakland residence, I embarked on a comprehensive renovation that breathed new life into the time-honored structure perched atop a hill. The house, an original dating back decades, boasts a commanding presence with 42 steps leading to the front door and is surrounded by 80 years' worth of lush forest growth.

Despite its location in a bustling neighborhood, the property imparts a sense of solitude, particularly when gazing out through the enchanting window. The home exudes coziness, adorned with architectural details harkening back to a bygone era. Its charm lies in the subtle nuances that collectively contribute to its extraordinary ambiance.

Marvel at breathtaking views from the living room, where each room has been thoughtfully illuminated in the aftermath of the meticulous remodel. The furnishings exude a luxurious yet inviting atmosphere, and the remodeled kitchen, though surrounded by an array of exceptional restaurants, stands as a culinary haven for those who choose to indulge in its amenities.
