3529 Jordan Rd, Oakland, CA 94619

She is a tantalizing dish located on perhaps the most charming tree-lined road in Redwood Heights, just five blocks from Redwood Heights Elementary School and the Rec Center. The gated, landscaped front yard, featuring a built-in bench and covered porch, offers a peaceful welcome. The two-level living room, with its hardwood floors and fireplace flanked by bookcases, opens through oversized patio doors to a generous west-facing deck with slices of Bay view, irresistibly inviting for indoor-outdoor living. The updated kitchen, with windows framing sunset skies, features a farmhouse sink, gas cooktop, ample storage, and a seamless connection to the dining room. The primary bedroom includes a sunroom with Bay views, providing a flexible and light-filled retreat. For the past 18 years, Jim and Ute have cherished countless neighborhood moments here, hiding Easter eggs for the Jordan Road kids, sipping morning coffee and enjoying croissants while chatting on the street, watching autumn leaves pile up for children to leap into, joining the “walking school bus” to Redwood Heights Elementary, and celebrating festive Halloweens filled with trick-or-treaters. The afternoon sun warms this soulful 1938 home, a graceful blend of vintage character and pride of ownership.
