Perched behind a private drive at 33 Somerset Road in Oakland (not Piedmont), this exceptional hillside estate commands sweeping panoramic views from the Golden Gate Bridge to the San Mateo Hills, offering rare privacy just steps from Piedmont. Spanning more than 6,900 square feet, the sophisticated residence features five bedrooms, four ensuite, and five-and-a-half baths, blending impressive scale with quiet comfort. Elegant interiors flow effortlessly, anchored by a chef’s kitchen and vaulted family room with rich wood detailing and dramatic wall-of-glass opening to a sun-drenched deck where sunsets become part of daily life. Flexible spaces for media, fitness, sauna, or office complement finely crafted finishes throughout. Lush gardens, level patios, elevator access, and a two-car garage complete the serene retreat. Minutes from Montclair Village, Rockridge, Piedmont Avenue, regional parks, and major commute routes—and with potential access to Piedmont schools via Interdistrict transfer program—this distinguished home offers expansive living in one of the Bay Area’s most coveted locations.
