Features
Just a few minutes from Montclair village awaits this Mediterranean accented 5 bed 3.5 bath home! Enjoy exceptional convenience with nearby walking trails into town and more than enough space for extended family or visiting guests.
The level-in front entry leads to a spacious guest suite with a separate exterior entrance. When not in use by visiting relatives the living area affords excellent separation of space from the main living rooms and works as a family room or entertainment center.
Maybe quiet dining below and not so quiet games upstairs?!
The updated chef's kitchen offers serious bakers and cooks space to prepare any dishes their hearts desire. A six burner stove top and double oven plus prep sink, expansive countertops and cabinets most homeowners dream of, and a pantry of course. Conveniently located outside the kitchen door is a patio for the Barbeque host.
Enjoy entertaining while you cook as this kitchen blends seamlessly with the dining room and easily accommodates a large number of guests for casula dining or sit down meals.
The sunny open plan living rooms open onto a fabulous expansive tiled patio, nicely screened from neighboring homes and with pretty treetop outlook and surrounded by birdsong. Enjoy wonderful California days entertaining friends and family. This is a seasoned party house!
On cooler days the light still streams in through the many large windows and you can enjoy the comfort of your own living room complete with modern gas fireplace.
Downstairs are an expansive master bedroom suite and 3 additional spacious bedrooms.
The Master suite has room for a California King, multiple pieces of furniture and plenty of room to do those morning or evening exercises. Enjoy the recently remodeled bathroom with its soaking tub, shower, Carrera marble finishes and custom cabinetry. A large walk in closet provides plenty of storage.
Adjacent to the master suite are a laundry area and a bedroom which was recently used as a home office.
The lower level features two additional very well sized bedrooms, both bright and with outlooks onto the deck and canyon and sharing their own bathroom.
Nearby walking trails are accessible for car free trips and the two car garage is equipped with a charging station for an electric vehicle. Solar power keeps utility bills to a minimum!

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, Kakui Sushi and Daughter Thai Kitchen. Gourmet specialty items are available at Le Bonbon and Farmstead Wine and Cheese. A Farmer’s Market on Sundays provides fresh local produce and baked goods.
McCaulou's is perhaps Montclair's best kept secret providing wonderful clothes, shoes and household accessories for the entire family in a modest sized department store. While those searching for kitchenware eagerly scour the locally owned "Someone's in the Kitchen". Montclair is home to fine-arts festivals throughout the year and a jazz festival in the late summer that enlivens the street scene.
