6839 Shepherd Canyon Rd Oakland, CA 94611

Classic 1990's era custom-built 4BR, 2-1/2BA contemporary home pristinely maintained by the original owners. The unique design, with over 2650 square feet, provides separated living areas on two-and-a-half levels plus a large basement area with a BONUS room and STORAGE room with exterior side access. The entry, with a soaring ceiling, leads to a spacious formal dining room, a large kitchen eat-in area with morning sunlight, and a kitchen with an island and ample cabinet and counter space. Just off the kitchen is a laundry room and an interior stairwell to access the two-car garage. From the entry five gentle steps lead to an inviting living room with a raised-hearth wood-burning fireplace, a half bath and a huge primary suite with a fireplace. Both the living room and primary suite have sliding glass doors that expand to a patio that provides outdoor entertaining space. The upper level has three huge bedrooms one of which can be used as a family room or library. A door from this room leads to a bridge allowing easy access to a level area for games, gardening and basking in the sun. There is a small garden shed, a child's play house, and a mature Meyer lemon tree that produces year-round. Solar panels on the roof heat a large water heater. Great location.
