Outside, and up a few stairs is a wooded sanctuary with views of Mt. Tam and the Golden Gate Bridge. The bountiful outdoor area is very special indeed, as the lot itself is 7,579 sq. ft.*. An ideal place to relax and play. Turn off your phone and set up the hammock and drop in. Front patio area with chairs is in poll- position for sunsets. Detached garage provides additional storage.

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, Mid Century 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. pharmacy, barber shops, groceries to restaurants. Local restaurant favorites include the Montclair Egg Shop, Flipper’s Gourmet Burgers, and Daughter's Thai Restaurant. Gourmet specialty items are available at Le Bonbon, and Farmstead Wine and Cheese and The Fifth Quarter Charcuterie. 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.
