Lovingly maintained by the current owners, 4508 Fair Avenue in Oakland is a charming mid-century house with a newly renovated kitchen and an urban gardener’s dream yard filled with roses, veggie beds, and bountiful fruit trees. The split-level home welcomes you with a light-filled living room and picture windows overlooking the quiet hills of Redwood Heights, the San Francisco Bay, and the beautiful city beyond. This peaceful neighborhood is tucked away from noisy traffic yet just minutes from the vibrant Montclair, Dimond, and Laurel districts. The top-performing Redwood Heights Elementary is another draw to the area.

Recent renovations were made with a designer’s eye. The big, bright kitchen features crisp white cabinets, marbled white quartz counters, stylish tile backsplashes, stainless-steel appliances, and picture windows with colorful garden views. (The deep purple foliage on the Japanese maple tree is breathtaking!) Head to the garden to gather fresh tomatoes and cucumbers for a summer salad, apples for pies, and pears for canning in this pristine kitchen.

There are rich oak floors throughout. The primary bedroom opens to a shaded garden patio. From the home’s main level, stairs lead down to a bonus den/study, laundry room, and garage. But really, you’ll want to spend most of your days in the garden exercising your green thumb and evenings on your patio under the wooden pergola (outdoor living room!) A built-in barbecue makes entertaining easy.
