About This Home

As of July 2020

Level up your work from home lifestyle with this midcentury modern open concept home tucked away up a private road in secluded Leona Heights. Gated and private, this 1,274 SF, 2 bed/1 bath home is perched on a massive 22,884 SF lot with subdividing potential (subject to buyer verification with City of Oakland.) Fresh white walls and beam ceilings allow the surrounding nature views to take center stage. A panel of sliding glass doors open onto the due south deck overlooking the canyon. The front yard has ample outdoor seating and features foxtail agave, yucca trees, and cactus, in addition to an (cocktail?) herb garden. Access to McDonell trail, which is part of the larger East Bay Parks trail system, is literally right up the street. www.5131McDonell.com Video Tour:
