About 697 Calmar Avenue
Welcome Home
As one of the very first homes built in the neighborhood, this 1910 Crocker Highlands Brown Shingle sits high on the hill on a large, flat lot with a commanding view of downtown Oakland and the San Francisco Bay.
This stately home boasts enviable formal spaces, beginning with a striking entryway and central staircase. To one side is a formal dining room with large picture windows and wood-burning fireplace. To the other is a formal living room, a thoughtfully-renovated gourmet kitchen, family room, and breakfast room. A laundry room and half-bath round out the first level.
The second level features a well-appointed master suite with renovated marble bathroom, a well-organized walk-in closet, and a private deck. Three additional bedrooms fill out this floor, each with their own distinct characteristics, as well as a large full bathroom. Up another flight of stairs sits a spacious finished attic bonus space that is perfect for guests or to keep play spaces contained and out of the way.
