Snapshot of Montclair Village, Oakland
Montclair Village is one of my favorite communities in Oakland. Here’s the scoop:
- The vibe is small-town
- It’s located in the beautiful tree-covered Oakland Hills
- I can get to it easily, because it’s close to major freeways and bus lines
- Families love the public elementary and middle schools
- There are many stair paths from the streets above that lead to the village
- There are great walking paths
- Drive along Scout Road and you might see a family of wild turkeys crossing the road
What to do in Montclair Village…
- Visit the Sunday Farmers’ Market. It’s year round. (And have a picnic at the park.)
- Go to my FAVORITE sushi restaurant and eat some cutting edge sushi rolls at Kakui
- Take a walk on the trail at the top of LaSalle, or take the short drive up Colton or Snake Road and you are at Huckleberry Preserve and Skyline Gate for gorgeous hiking trails
- Play tennis in the public court.

Take shelter in your new home...
As you walk along the path to the front door of 3390 Guido you will enjoy the cool breeze and shelter of the pine tree above. Once you cross the threshold of the front door the the large rooms, easy floor-plan and cheery kitchen will capture your heart. This house was rescued 8 years ago. Once a victim of a fire and re-built with plain white cabinetry and ordinary vinyl flooring, Ellyn gave this house new life and made it a home. In the last eight years this house has had updated bathrooms, updated kitchen, new furnace, new hot water heater, seismic strengthening, new drainage, new landscaping, new interior and exterior paint and lots of love! Open Sunday July 18th, 2010 from 2-4 – 2 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, offered at $615,000
Montclair Redo to View

5687 Florence Terrace in then.
Montclair is an area of Oakland above Highway 13 between Broadway Terrace and Park Boulevard, with properties built from the 1920′s to new construction. The appeal is the woodsy setting and in many parts of Montclair you will get the feeling that you are away from it all, yet so close to the city vibe. 5687 Florence Terrace is a 3 bathroom, 2+ bedroom home, currently on the market for $698,000. The cool thing is you are only two blocks up from Mountain Boulevard which is a straight shot to Montclair Village, (a retail and restaurant district of this area), yet you feel like you are in a very private, lush nook. Set back from the street, with drought resistant perennials flowers and paver-stone hardscape this house is very striking and handsome. Once inside the three sets of french doors to the grand balcony will capture your heart. The simple and tasteful white decor is minimalist, meets Shabby Chic, meets East Coast beach house. The owners of this house have done tons of upgrades from structural improvements to fantastic cabinetry and this house is truly a move-in and hang your artwork house. This property has been renovated tastefully, yet it retains all of the essence of 1923 the year it was built, making it a must see.
