About this single-family home

Discover a hidden gem in the scenic Oakland Hills! Nestled amidst Montclair's lush landscapes, this charming cottage-style home overflows with potential and is on the market for the first time since 1966. Its timeless allure and enduring appeal are evident. The house, with its comforting tranquility and warmth, features notable period details such as striking beamed ceilings and a handsome brick fireplace. Gleaming hardwood floors preserve its classic 1930s charm. While some updates are needed, they provide a splendid canvas for adding your personal touch. Downstairs, bonus rooms with a separate entrance serve as potential spaces for an in-law unit, home office, or creative studio. The detached garage and long driveway provide parking and storage possibilities. Outside, towering Oak, Pine, and Redwood trees add to the property's natural beauty. The front patio is ideal for serene morning coffees, while a deck extending from the kitchen invites alfresco dining or summer barbecues amongst rich greenery. Remarkably, this property survived the 1991 Oakland Hills fire, marking it as a symbol of resilience. This home offers an opportunity to create your dream abode in a coveted locale. Its charm, potential, and fantastic location make it an excellent prospect for buyers.
