165 Beechwood Dr, Oakland, CA 94618

Set in one of Oakland's most desirable neighborhoods, this 1937 home combines modern vibrancy with a timeless vintage pedigree. Built on a generous corner lot, the home has been updated to enhance its sunny, spacious rooms and leafy vistas. Sleek upgrades to the kitchen and baths play beautifully against original hardwood floors, gleaming woodwork and a gracefully curving staircase. The expansive yard is the heart of this home, filled with places to entertain or savor solitude as the scent of apples, pears, persimmons and roses fills the air. From the shade of a spreading oak to the outdoor dining patio and back corner ideal for swings or a hammock, it's an enchanting world of its own. Nature and urban life are both moments away, from picnics, forest hikes and lake visits in the Temescal Regional Recreation Area to Market Hall and the charming shops and restaurants of Rockridge. Top-rated public and private schools are also nearby. Style, grace and location. You really can have it all!
