Description
Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac in the coveted Claremont Hills, this reimagined modern “treehouse” offers a rare sense of tranquility surrounded by soaring redwoods, canyon vistas, and the calming beauty of nature—just minutes from the best of Berkeley and Oakland. Thoughtfully redesigned from the inside out, the home blends warm modern style with an organic, relaxed feel inspired by its woodsy setting. The main level unfolds as a bright, open living space where walls of glass, curated finishes, and natural textures create a seamless connection to the outdoors. A beautifully remodeled kitchen anchors the home, while a newly built deck floats among the trees, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The spa-inspired main bath features a deep soaking tub and serene, retreat-like ambiance. Upstairs, a private bedroom and sunlit roof deck offer the perfect setting for a home office, creative studio, or peaceful primary retreat. The lower level includes laundry, generous storage, and two tranquil en suite bedrooms, each opening to its own private balcony nestled in the redwoods. At the end of the street, enjoy direct access to beloved Garber Park Nature Reserve, where winding trails, streams, and frequent deer sightings make everyday walks feel worlds away. Moments from Elmwood, College Avenue, and Rockridge BART, this is a rare opportunity to experience elevated hillside living in one of the East Bay’s most sought-after neighborhoods.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageChabot has been more than a wonderful school, but grown to be our community. The teachers and principal are some of the most dedicated educators in the Bay Area. The focus they give not just in academics, but building strong social/emotional learning is second to none. After three years with the school we are already dreading the time when our kiddo will graduate and we will move on from the Chabot family.Parent Review2y ago - Claremont Middle School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been pleased with our experience at Claremont - there are a few teachers that I have encountered are not well-liked by parents or students, but for the majority of the staff are hardworking and wonderful with our students.Special Ed parents need to be strong advocates, especially if their child is high-functioning.Parent Review9mo ago - Oakland Technical High School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBoth my sons attended Tech, and have enjoyed it. My oldest son is now getting ready to transfer to UC next fall and my younger son is currently a junior and enrolled in AP classes that are as challenging as any college class I’ve seen. I feel the curriculum has prepared both boys well for college. They’ve experienced no bullying, and have made great friends here and they’ve generally liked their teachers. Overall we’ve been happy with our kids attending Oakland Tech!Parent Review2y ago - Thornhill Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThornhill Elementary has been a safe haven for my child and our family. We have been very pleased with the teachers and other administrators including the principal. Our child is neurodivergent and he has found his "people" and we have also felt truly supported during our time at Thornhill. Of course, things can always be better, it is an Oakland public school, but we are so happy to be a part of the Thornhill community as it continues to strive to be better.Parent Review1y ago - Home And Hospital Program
