4305 Fair Avenue was thoughtfully-designed, deeply loved, and well-maintained by the same family for nearly 30 years! Tucked away on a cul-de-sac, under a mature oak tree, one may have a tough time deciding what property feature is most enjoyable: the dining room with sliding door to the sunny deck, the updated kitchen/family room with a built-in desk and a sliding door to a second deck, the level backyard with raised garden beds, flagstone patio, mature lemon tree, drought-friendly garden, or the dreamy sun-drenched primary suite with Bay views, walk-in closet and updated bathroom with new double sink vanity and new porcelain tiled floor, (2023). With a full bathroom downstairs, there is no need for guests to go upstairs where there are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the same level. This home is light and airy and has a formal living room with a fireplace allowing the downstairs to offer multiple hang-out areas that can easily spill out to the glorious outdoors. Function, spaciousness, and sublime indoor-outdoor flow make this home a 10! Add the fact that this lovely home is located in the highly-desirable Redwood Heights neighborhood and close to the Laurel shopping district, and you may even need to add bonus points! 

Fun tidbits from the sellers:

They are the original owners who raised their two boys in this home. They were told that their property and the property to the north were once one lot and that the neighboring house was a caretaker's cottage for the orchards that existed back in the day. They have also been told that the oak tree out front is approximately 120-150 years old! They enjoyed great relationships with their neighbors including summer block parties, evening cocktails under the oak tree, exchanging house keys, picking up package deliveries for each other, and much more. Cooking is their passion so they really enjoyed the updated kitchen/great room that they created and loved to entertain and have sit-down dinners for a dozen or two guests. One of their favorite memories is pulling their living room furniture out on the deck in the winter to enjoy Oakland’s great weather!
