Memories of love, cooking, and play fill this mid-century home in the heart of Oakland?s Crestmont neighborhood which has been owned by the same family for over fifty years. Sun streams in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, where the wide-open sky and spectacular views of the San Francisco Bay and 3 bridges greet you. The view deck is the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or dine under the stars with the city lights as your night-long entertainment. The well-conceived floor plan is both cozy and spacious, with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a huge family room with a second fireplace downstairs. A freshly painted interior and exterior, an updated bath, new lighting and flooring throughout are recent upgrades. Some improvements have been left for the new owners - move right in or take your time deciding on a master plan. Gardeners will delight in having such a ready blank slate and outdoor enthusiasts, your playground awaits with the expansive level backyard. Have you been dreaming of a sport court or that pool you have always wanted or your own urban farm? The neighborhood provides access to beautiful trails in the Redwood Regional Parks and a lovely playground at Joaquin Miller Park. Close to shops, dining, and Hwy 13 access with Montclair Village only a few miles away. Views: Downtown
