3825 High St APT 209, Oakland, CA 94619

A tropical oasis in Oakland? The best of all worlds converge in this 2 BR/2BA condo that overlooks the green hills of Oakland on one side and then the ecosystem of fountains, koi ponds, palm trees, water lilies, blue agapanthus flowers, and turtles on the other. This lush, quiet, established community feels like vacation, yet the amenities of Montclair and the Laurel District, plus easy freeway access, make this a tranquil haven to call home. Enter the complex under a flower-covered arch, cross a wooden bridge over the pond, and ascend to the front door and adjacent deck. The two sizable bedrooms both have sweeping views of the hills, oversized closets with built-ins, and their own bathrooms. The kitchen was recently remodeled with custom dark oak cabinets, high-end appliances, new counter tops, and a dreamy farmhouse sink. The focal point of the floor plan though has to be the spacious deck that runs the length of the dining and living rooms with large glass doors along the expanse. Spending time out there allows you to soak in the sound of the water, hear the birds, enjoy a sunset, and feel the lushness of the mature plantings that surround. This place is one of a kind.
