1820 Melvin Rd Oakland CA 94602

Overview

This stately Spanish Mediterranean home has only had 3 owners in its history. It was built in an era when home was meant to be a sanctuary, a retreat. That feeling of sanctuary is pervasive throughout the spacious rooms the moment you step through the impressive front door and look up at the curved stairwell. Each room is like a work of art. Notice the patterned hardwood floors, the warm & inviting fireplaces and the large windows. You’ll love the wrought iron railings and breezy balconies & views. Entertain effortlessly in the gracious living and dining rooms or take the party down to the large family room which opens to the rear patio and gardens through French doors. Upstairs there are three light filled bedrooms that open to balconies overlooking the hills and two baths. On the main floor there is an additional bedroom and bath. Prepare your favorite meals in the kitchen which is adjacent to a cozy breakfast room or grill on the deck. And a two-car garage makes parking easy!
