Welcome to 5671 Estates Drive– a light-filled, modern retreat in Oakland’s sought-after Upper Rockridge neighborhood. Tucked away above the street, this lovely midcentury home offers easy indoor-outdoor living in bright, cheerful, comfortable spaces.

There is an open living room with clean lines, tall corner windows, a brick fireplace, and gleaming wood floors. The dining area flows seamlessly between the living room and the stylish kitchen. 

The updated kitchen features stainless appliances, quartz countertops, glass tile backsplash, and French doors that open out to the oversized patio and garden areas for easy entertaining, lounging, and playing.

Neighborhood

Upper Rockridge is a quiet,  sought-after neighborhood known for its winding streets, pretty views, mature trees, and a wide mix of architectural styles, including Craftsman homes, mid-century designs, and updated contemporary houses.

Originally developed in the early 1900s, the neighborhood includes a system of stone stairways that were built to help residents walk to public transit. Many of these stairways are still in use today and connect different parts of the neighborhood.

Upper Rockridge offers a primarily residential neighborhood while remaining conveniently located to many amenities. Rockridge BART, College Avenue shops and restaurants, Montclair Village, and Piedmont Avenue are all nearby.  Local favorites like Village Market, Terrace Cafe, and Broadway Terrace Nursery are close at hand, making errands and weekend projects easy to manage without leaving the neighborhood. 

Nearby Farmer's Markets include Sunday markets in Montclair Village as well as on Claremont Boulevard in Rockridge.

Trails and playgrounds can be found at Lake Temescal, or other nearby East Bay Regional Parks.  Montclair Park features playgrounds, tennis and pickleball courts, and more. 

You can even swim nearby--at Roberts Pool  in Roberts Redwood Regional Recreation Area, or Lions Pool in Dimond Park, or by joining one of the local swim and fitness clubs. Claremont Country Club isn't far, either--golf anyone?
