About This Home

As of June 2020

A sanctuary for birds of paradise. Behind the fence, below the trees, among flowers, the grounds around the house provide multiple outdoor spaces: a beautiful spacious & private cobblestone patio, a terraced garden, a kennel, a playground area, and a spectacular deck to view Lake Merritt and the Bay. The cottage-style home with original 1940’s hardwood floors, 2BR/1BA meticulously maintained, boasts a vintage kitchen and a 5.4kW PV solar panel system hidden on the roof. The quiet and harmonious living space could easily be expanded to the lower floor, where the contiguous garage and bonus room offer a great potential for development. While passing by this corner lot property, you would never imagine this secret serene spot remotely close to Montclair village! But leave your car charging on the driveway and come relax under the maple tree and admire the birds of paradise.
