1835 Brentwood Road, Oakland, CA 94602

An architectural pioneer in Oakland's coveted Oakmore neighborhood, this rare 1936 split-level home pairs period modern lines with historic old-growth timber construction. Spanning three levels, the residence serves as a private hillside garden retreat. A brick pathway leads through professionally landscaped, irrigated front gardens to the covered brick porch, while fenced and gated side and rear yards ensure total privacy. Tranquil garden views frame mature Jacaranda, Southern Magnolia, Lemon and Japanese Maple trees, layered with Bougainvillea, succulents, fragrant roses and gardenias. A welcoming foyer introduces the home's warm scale. The spacious living room showcases recessed lighting, crown molding, golden oak hardwood, a gas fireplace, and period Crittall-style casement windows with garden and bay views. The dining room hosts eight guests comfortably and opens via glass French doors to a covered brick patio. The spacious eat-in kitchen anchors the main level with large casement windows overlooking the verdant gardens. It features ample storage within custom solid-wood cabinetry alongside premium appliances: a Wolf dual-fuel range/griddle with vented hood, a Samsung French door four-door refrigerator, and an ultra-quiet Bosch 800 dishwasher. A dedicated laundry pantry houses the full-sized Kenmore Elite washer/dryer, while comfort is ensured by an energy-efficient Carrier Performance 96 HVAC system with central heating and AC. The upper level features a primary retreat with gorgeous hardwood flooring, generous closets and rear yard garden views. The full bathroom showcases custom tile work, a deep soaking tub, a separate tiled shower stall with glass door, and a premium Toto Washlet bidet system.
