A tranquil creekside retreat in Oakland’s sought-after Redwood Heights, this upgraded 3BD/2BA Mid-Century home offers exceptional indoor/outdoor living surrounded by mature trees and enchanting gardens. The 1740 SQFT split-level layout is bright and airy, with sunlight streaming through newer windows and a large skylight illuminating the dining room, the center of the home. Hardwood floors and recessed lighting flow from the living room with its cozy fireplace into the renovated kitchen, featuring a wine fridge and backyard access. French doors open to the deck for effortless al fresco dining, morning coffee, or sylvan evenings accompanied by birdsong and the gentle rhythm of the creek below. Two bedrooms enjoy peaceful creek views and share an updated hall bath. Privately set on its own level, the spacious primary suite feels like a retreat, complete with a sitting area, dual-vanity ensuite with separate tub and shower, generous closets, and French doors to a deck overlooking the water. Steps descend to wooded patio areas along the creek, ideal for relaxing or play. A two-car garage with interior access and a large laundry room with sink, storage, and new washer/dryer add convenience. Nearby parks, trails, Redwood Elementary, and neighborhood amenities complete the setting.
