Great Opportunity! A unique, view property situated in the Oakland Hills, this 6 bedroom/4 bath home has great vision and many amenities, but features multiple projects in various states of completion. The original 2,711 sq. ft. (public record) single family home has been increased to approximately 3,200 sq. ft. (per seller) due to lower level expansion which has been converted into an independent living area. The home boasts mostly dual pane windows, rear decks with open-space views, two furnaces (upper and lower zones), fireplaces on both levels, four Vellus operable skylights with blinds, five sky tube skylights, two solar operated attic exhaust fans, new garage door and adjustable storage racks, tankless water heater, 200 amp electrical service and solar panel system (owned). The seller, due to personal circumstances, has been unable to complete many of these non-permitted projects. Great opportunity for a contractor or handy person.
