    What's special

    Large level lawnMature greeneryPristine landscapingOriginal millworkCalm and comfortTree lined streetDetached garage
    Located on the perfect tree lined street and unmistakably Rockridge. At its heart: 5490 Kales, a stately Craftsman is equal parts architecture and atmosphere that has been extensively updated throughout the years. A rose studded trellis marks the entry, leading through pristine landscaping to a broad, welcoming porch - perfect for lazy afternoons and neighborhood connection. The grand foyer opens to scaled ceilings, original millwork, and light that moves with the day. Inside the home, distinct yet connected living, dining and kitchen spaces flow effortlessly. The kitchen - vivid and thoughtful, opens to a sunny rear deck and lush and private yard. Upstairs, the primary suite is a quiet retreat with skylit bath. Two more bedrooms and an additional bath offer calm and comfort, with ample storage and laundry right where you want it. Out back, the large level lawn is perfect for play, framed by mature greenery, and a detached garage with untapped potential - the optimal location for a back yard ADU. Beneath it all: rock-solid systems, from foundation to roof. And just blocks away—Rockridge’s celebrated shops, restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores and more. People wait years to buy on this special block - don’t miss your opportunity to plant roots in this incredible home.
