About This Home

As of October 2020

Mid-century modern enthusiasts will appreciate the opportunity to make a coveted Tom Lowe house their next home. Complete with Lowe’s signature wall of windows (recently replaced), vaulted beamed ceilings, + freestanding hearth, this home has maintained its vintage magnetism while enjoying countless updates to ensure the property survives well into the next mid-century. Valuable upgrades to this two bedroom, two bathroom open floor plan include a newer roof, roughed in lower level adding over 500 sf, central A/C + furnace w air scrubber, tankless H2O heater, lower deck, new posts + piers, exterior concrete stairs, car charger, + the list goes on. Located in Oakland’s Merriewood neighborhood on an extra-large lot, your new home is perched just above cherished Montclair Village and all of its amenities. A true respite from the urban grind, you’ve found the perfect spot to comfortably escape while working from home or distance learning or whatever else this new normal has in store for us.
