Just beyond the neighboring Woodminster business district—with its beloved bakery, restaurants, hardware store, and shops—this spacious Traditional home rests on a sunny corner lot in a serene and established neighborhood. On the market for the first time in over 30 years, it has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated by the same family for a generation. With room to grow, entertain, and enjoy the outdoors, it offers a rare blend of comfort, character, and convenience.
A brick walkway meanders through established, drought-tolerant landscaping and leads to a welcoming front porch. Step inside to discover elegant public rooms framed by classic archways and finished with random plank hardwood floors. The living room features a gas fireplace, custom built-ins, and corner windows that flood the space in natural light. The adjacent dining room, accessible from both the kitchen and living room, opens to the beautifully landscaped yard through French doors creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow for gatherings large and small.
The updated eat-in kitchen is a chef’s delight, with a peninsula-style layout, Wolf 4-burner cooktop, Dacor double ovens, SubZero refrigerator, and ample storage. Just outside, a large deck with built-in bench seating invites grilling, outdoor dining, or quiet evenings under the stars.
Originally a two-bedroom home, a carefully designed 2004 expansion added a second story with a sunlit primary suite complete with three closets and a spa-like bath. After a long day, unwind in the generous tub built for two. An additional upstairs bedroom or home office and a laundry area complete the upper level. On the main floor are two more bedrooms and a full bath, including the original primary with dual walk-in closets.
The lower level offers even more flexibility with a large family room or fifth bedroom featuring a fireplace and walk-in closet – perfect for movie nights, guests or a teen retreat. There’s a full bath, storage and direct access to the two-car attached garage. A two-car which includes a Tesla Powerwall and a second washer and dryer—ideal for sandy beach days or muddy hiking boots.
The beautifully landscaped grounds are a dream for the urban farmer, with a prolific edible garden that includes pear and fig trees, strawberries, tomatoes, herbs, and more. A level lawn—once the site of many legendary tetherball matches—adds to the home's playful and welcoming spirit.
Joaquin Miller Park with its off-leash dog area, and Redwood Regional Park with miles of scenic trails, are just minutes away, offering endless outdoor adventures for hikers, bikers, and nature lovers alike. Montclair Village, the Glenview business district, top public and private schools, freeway access and public transit are all nearby, enhancing the home's unmatched livability.
This rare offering brings together timeless California architecture, smart modern updates, flexible living spaces and a truly special outdoor setting.
