This sunny contemporary, built just 17 years ago, has all the space you could ever want and room for the au pair or in-laws, too. Five bedrooms in all, 3.5 baths plus an office/studio/fitness room with cozy, radiant mat heat in the floor. On the main level, you'll find a big, well-appointed chef's kitchen that flows easily to a dinette and step-down family room with fireplace and large deck. Also on this floor, a gracious living room and formal dining room for those times when you want to take entertaining up a notch. The dining room also features French doors that open wide to an inviting patio. High ceilings and newly refinished hardwood floors add a special richness to all these rooms. Out back, a large play yard and beautifully landscaped terrace beckon you to kick your shoes off and sink your feet into the soft, lush grass. There are even three “treehouses” neatly camouflaged in the terrace for adventurous little ones. And be sure not to miss the delicious apples and lemons, which are in season right now. Upstairs, a huge master suite awaits with its own private deck and magnificent view of the Oakland hills, Mt. Tamalpais and a sliver of the Bay. There’s also an oversized, custom walk-in closet and a master bath that features a dual head shower and jetted tub bathed in sunlight from the skylight above. On this floor, three more good-sized bedrooms, all with hardwood floors, big closets and happy green vistas. Go downstairs (or use the exterior entrance) and you'll be delighted by an oversized fifth bedroom with its own full bath, perfectly suited for the au pair or in-laws. This is also where the multi-use bonus room can be found, entering via two tall French doors. Interior access from the extra-large 2-car garage is here as well. Look in the garage and you’ll see some of the equipment for this home’s money-saving solar electrical system. While the home itself fulfills most people's wish list, there's much more to like. First, it sits on a quiet, level street, low in the Montclair hills, so there are no winding roads to navigate. And when it's time to leave, Montclair Village is right down the road. And you're just one minute to the freeway and only a few more to the East Bay's most popular shopping and dining venues – Rockridge, Piedmont Avenue, Elmwood, Temescal and Oakland’s resurgent downtown. BART is virtually around the corner – as is San Francisco, for that matter. And you'll be happy to know that this home lies within the attendance boundaries of the award-winning and highly coveted Thornhill Elementary school (Call the Oakland School District for details). What an opportunity! Plan now to see all this home has to offer.
