Set on 1.6 acres in Oakland's sought-after Oakmore district, this rare offering presents a private, retreat-like setting that blends architectural character, meaningful new construction, and exceptional future flexibility. The driveway entrance is located on Lincoln Avenue, while the home itself is tucked approximately 300 feet down a private drive into a secluded canyon setting above Head-Royce School. Spanning from Lincoln Avenue to Melvin Road and centered between the two, the property offers an uncommon sense of scale and privacy rarely found in the area. Expanded by over 1,200 square feet, the main residence pairs original character with refined modern living. A bifold door opens to a redwood deck with a hot tub and Bay views, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. Beyond the main home, the property unfolds as a collection of thoughtfully designed spaces. A brand-new garage with electrical and a bathroom is designed for straightforward conversion, offering flexibility for guest quarters, workspace, or future income potential. A detached studio provides an ideal setting for a private office or creative retreat. The property also includes a fully permitted ADU site with initial groundwork completed. Surrounded by mature trees, terraced gardens, and hillside privacy, the grounds offer a rare sense of seclusion while remaining moments from Montclair Village, regional parks, and key commuter routes. This expansive property is a versatile urban retreat designed for evolving needs, including multigenerational living, income potential, or a live-work lifestyle.
