Experience Modern Living on an Exceptional Level
True style and real California living intersect at 705 Calmar Ave. In 2020 this home was fully remodeled, and the floorplan reimagined, resulting in an exquisite 4 bed, 4 bathroom home plus detached 1 bed, 1 bathroom ADU. High-quality finishes, radiant floor heating, skylights, custom accordion windows that open to outside patios, 10-foot ceilings, luxury spa-worthy bathrooms, and engineered wood flooring. The list goes on and on.
Greeted by a pivot swinging front door at the level-in entryway, as you enter, you’ll discover a spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom perfect for guests. Opposite is a large flexible space that can work in a myriad of ways; be it an office, playroom, or entertainment room. As you go further into the home you quickly experience true modern living on an exceptional level. A flank of wood windows pulls your attention outward towards the covered patio and yard. The large chef’s kitchen seamlessly connects to the outdoors allowing you to relish in al-fresco dining. Enhanced by a large bay windows above the kitchen sink on the opposite wall the accordion doors stack to one side providing easy access to the southwest-facing yard.
Custom metal railings adorn the staircase to the 2nd floor where three bedrooms reside in addition to the second family room which opens onto a covered patio – complemented by views of downtown Oakland and San Francisco. The primary bedroom shares these city views along with tranquil yard viewing. The en-suite bathroom off the primary is literally a 5-star experience; side-by-side marble sinks, floor-to-ceiling tile work, undermount lighting, a huge glass stall shower, a freestanding tub, and an impressive, generous closet. To incorporate this bathroom into your life is to inject yourself with a daily dose of goodness. Down the hallway is a Juliet balcony – on either side are two more generously sized bedrooms and two additional bathrooms.
Outside, the ADU is seamlessly incorporated into the site plan. With windows on three sides, views of the yard, gardens, and fruit trees, make this a fabulous space to be a part of. This well-designed space is useful and the full bath is pure bonus.
The flat yard has it all. Grass to support endless games, a garden space that receives just the right amount of sun, and mature fruit trees provide a mini orchard experience. And a cedar shed for additional storage.
705 Calmar is perched atop a gentle hill in the Charming Crocker Highlands neighborhood. Convenient proximity to Lakeshore Ave, Crocker Elementary School*, Oak Grove Park, and Oakland’s Davie tennis courts, to name a few. We look forward to seeing you at this very special property.
*Any interested parties should verify the school district and availability, as attendance and attending the closest school is not guaranteed.
