  Upgraded Montclair home with storybook charm and sweeping San Francisco Bay views on a rare level lot.

Storybook Montclair Living with Sweeping Bay Views and Rare Level Grounds The magic of this Montclair home reveals itself from the gardens to the views, inviting you into a truly California way of living. This romantic, beautifully upgraded 4+BD/3BA, 2521 SqFt storybook residence pairs rich architectural detail with sweeping San Francisco Bay views, all set on a rare, level lot. A grassy lawn and English garden create a warm welcome. Inside, sunlight pours through mullioned windows, framing vistas from Marin to San Francisco to Oakland. The living room is both elegant and inviting, anchored by a vintage plaster and stone fireplace and crowned with a decorative coved ceiling. Just beyond, a light-filled solarium offers the perfect spot for a home office or quiet retreat, with easy access to the backyard for seamless indoor/outdoor living. Outside, mature landscaping surrounds a private patio and level lawn for gathering with friends, unwinding at the end of the day, or simply enjoying the quiet. Back inside, hardwood floors lead to a dining room with Bay views and into a well-appointed kitchen featuring a Wolf range, copper sink, adjacent laundry room, and a charming breakfast nook with built-in glass cabinetry perfect for enjoying a morning coffee. The main level includes two spacious bedrooms, one with a dressing area complete with built-ins, and another with a recessed ceiling and generous closet. A classic hall bath with a clawfoot tub completes the level. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a retreat above it all, with expansive views, a Juliette balcony, a cozy sitting area with built-in storage, and an ensuite bath with skylight and walk-in shower. The lower level adds versatility with a private office, flexible space with sink for a studio or workshop, and a bright bedroom suite with a stylish full bath and glass door to the backyard. Thoughtful upgrades include solar panels, Tesla batteries, and EV charging outlet. All just moments from top-rated schools, Montclair Village’s shops and restaurants, and miles of East Bay parklands.
