Just a few blocks from the northeastern end of Lake Merritt, Haddon Hill is a quiet residential neighborhood of architecturally distinct and historic homes, ranging in style from simple California bungalows to grand Italian villas and Spanish haciendas. The neighborhood is reportedly the first in the Bay Area to have installed underground utility lines. Close to top-notch schools, Lake Merritt, and Grand Lake Commercial District shops and markets, dining establishments, entertainment venues, recreational facilities, and other neighborhood-serving amenities -- such as the Grand Lake Theater, Saturday Farmer's Market, Splash Pad Park, US Post Office, Oakland Public Library and banks -- the house has a "walk score" of 89. The freeways and public transit are also easily accessible.
