Property Description
Set among the winding streets and beautiful historic homes of Crocker Highlands, this light-filled four bedroom four bathroom residence pairs the character and permanence of a classic Oakland home with the ease of truly turn-key living. Every aspect of the property has been thoughtfully considered and carefully revived with beautifully remodeled interiors and a long list of behind-the-walls upgrades rarely found in a home of this era. Inside, incredible natural light follows you throughout the home, while a reworked floor plan creates an effortless sense of connection between spaces. The kitchen and main living areas open directly to the backyard, making indoor-outdoor living part of everyday life rather than something reserved for the occasional summer afternoon. Upstairs, find three bedrooms with two that boast a connection with private decks-perfect for morning coffee, an evening glass of wine, or simply opening the doors and letting the outside in. The lowest level adds another layer of flexibility, with both a dedicated office and additional large space ready to become whatever life calls for next: a media room, playroom, gym, guest space or quiet retreat. Beyond the finishes, what makes 4034 Balfour particularly special is the feeling that the work has already been done. It is the increasingly rare combination of history and ease: a home with nearly a century of story behind it, thoughtfully revived for modern life and ready to be lived in for decades to come. A true forever-home candidate, ready for its next chapter.
