About this home

Set behind a private, landscaped courtyard, this thoughtfully updated 1924 Oakmore home is light-filled, inspiring, and designed for the many rhythms of everyday life. A large picture window welcomes abundant natural light into the open living and dining room, where a custom built-in alcove offers a cozy place to read, gather or unwind. The refreshed kitchen features stainless-steel appliances and a custom breakfast nook with integrated cabinetry and bench storage. Two bedrooms, a full bath, laundry and a sun-filled bonus room complete the main level. Wrapped in deep green wainscoting, the bonus room can easily become an office, reading room or quiet retreat for mornings or after hours. An interior connection allows the main and lower levels to live naturally as one generous home. Yet the lower level can also function independently as a legal ADU, with its own living and dining space, full kitchen, two bedrooms, full bath, dedicated laundry and two exterior entrances with direct access to the expansive backyard. This uncommon flexibility supports multigenerational living, extended stays, a quiet workspace or creative studio, without dictating any one way to use it. The outdoor spaces serve as natural extensions of the home. The front courtyard combines integrated seating with private landscaping to create a moment of zen. The multi-level back includes an upper deck, various patio areas, a flexible play space, and shaded gathering areas with plenty of room to garden, entertain, or play catch. Recent improvements include a new HVAC system with central air conditioning, thoughtfully integrated storage systems, and a gated driveway. Oakmore pairs a serene, leafy hillside and canyon setting with urban convenience. Dimond Park, the neighborhood library, local markets, cafés and restaurants are within walking distance, while Montclair Village has everything one needs and is only minutes away. Highway 13, AC Transit and several nearby BART stations make Oakland, San Francisco and the greater Bay Area easily accessible. 3954 Forest Hill Ave - built for today, ready for whatever’s next
