Poised behind a gate at the end of a private driveway, a surprise awaits: A secluded retreat with magical secret gardens full of fruit trees, lavender, roses, vegetable beds and birdsong. Sunbathed front “orchard” has olive, avocado, plum, cherry, lime and fig. In back, a mini park-scape unfolds before your eyes: Lush plantings, luxe hot tub, dappled patios, twinkling lights, and birds grace the enchanting space. An impressive lineup of upgrades augment this modern farmhouse, with both contemporary and original features that deliver style, practicality and soul. Renovated kitchen opens to rear deck for year-round indoor-outdoor living & entertaining. Alluring bedrooms glow with natural light. Luminous primary features a large, updated bath. Second bedroom doubles as office or guest suite with adjacent bath. Captivating gardens, 4-car parking and unequalled privacy provide the perfect recipe for living in the core of the city, and recharging in a cocoon infused with joy and beauty. Surrounded by a community of loving neighbors and enhanced by a central location, everything is at your fingertips: BART, Whole Foods, Home Depot, Pixar, Kaiser, home-grown hotspots Joodooboo, Homeroom, Arthur Mac’s Taproom and Blue Bottle Coffee—this is the epicenter of Oakland living. Simply magical!
