Set against open space with sweeping 180-degree Bay views, this red tile-roofed Mediterranean retreat offers a rare sense of escape in the East Bay. West-facing rooms frame views from the Estuary and Port of Oakland to Downtown Oakland, the Bay Bridge, San Francisco skyline, Treasure Island, Golden Gate Bridge, Angel Island, and Tiburon. Built in the 1930s and thoughtfully updated, the home pairs timeless character — hand-hewn beams, blacksmith-style hardware, white oak floors, and a Dutch front door — with updated foundations, roof, windows, electrical, plumbing, kitchen, and baths. The main level features an updated chef’s kitchen, large dining room, and generous living room opening to a heavy-timber view deck. Below, a brick auto court leads to a broad flat lawn and orchard with citrus, pear, apple, loquat, and fig trees. Flexible spaces include a main-level office/bedroom, ensuite bedroom with separate entrance and laundry hookups, plus an upper-level primary suite, three additional bedrooms, and a hall/ensuite bath. BESO HES score of 6.
