About This Home

As of April 2025

Perched on a stunning outlook in the coveted Glen Highlands area of Montclair, 6431 Gwin Road offers a rare combination of dramatic Bay views, elegant architecture, and spacious living. Built new in 1998, this 3BD/2.5BA multi-level home is designed to maximize its panoramic 3-bridge outlook, with floor-to-ceiling windows, multiple decks, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A bright grand foyer opens to a FLR w/soaring ceilings, a fireplace, and an adjacent dining area showcasing the SF skyline. The main level also features a great room with a fireplace, a large view deck, and a chef's kitchen with a peninsula, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a true retreat, offering breathtaking Golden Gate views, a sitting area, dual-sided fireplace, spa-like bath, soaking tub, and a walk-in closet. The lower level boasts a large office, media room or gym with a covered balcony, two additional ample BDs, a full BA w/dual vanity, and a dedicated laundry room. Fresh paint, hardwood floors, a new HVAC system, and leased solar run throughout. Landscaped patios and yards, a spacious two-car garage, and private cul-de-sac location complete this rare offering, just minutes from Montclair Village, Rockridge, Berkeley, parks, schools, and freeway access.
