Modern Sanctuary in the Oakland Hills with Panoramic Bay Views Available January 7 through April 6, 2026 Rare opportunity to rent a modern sanctuary in the Oakland Hills with breathtaking panoramic views of San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Bay. Our home is a contemporary retreat designed for comfort, connection, and inspiration. The main floor features an open layout with vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows framing forested canyons and skyline views. A remodeled bathroom, two versatile bedrooms (each suitable as guest rooms or home offices), and a dedicated workspace make it ideal for remote professionals or families alike. As a family with two small children, we've found the layout and flow to be perfectly suited for comfortable, easy family living. Step onto the deck to enjoy morning coffee above the trees or unwind at sunset as the city lights flicker to life. Downstairs, the master suite opens onto the garden and includes a spa-like bath and laundry area. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath create a perfect setup for children, guests, or creative space. The backyard's small grove of redwoods provides a tranquil, natural backdrop, offering a rare sense of peace and privacy just minutes from the city. Located at the edge of Oakland's most beautiful parks and preserves, you can hike or bike directly from the house into Sibley Volcanic Preserve, Redwood Regional Park, or Huckleberry Botanic Preserve. Downtown Oakland is just 15 minutes away, and San Francisco is a 30-minute drive. Experience the calm of an elegant, modern home immersed in nature with the culture, dining, and energy of the Bay Area within easy reach.
