A Quiet Retreat with Room to Breathe
Tucked into Leona Heights, 5250 Leona Street offers something that can be surprisingly hard to find in Oakland: a home that feels peaceful and removed from the pace of everyday life, while still being close to the places you want to go. Set on a quiet hillside surrounded by mature trees, the setting creates a sense of privacy and calm that you’ll notice the moment you arrive.
Inside, the home feels open, light-filled and connected to its surroundings. Soaring ceilings and tall windows bring in natural light from multiple directions, while three spacious decks and a large flagstone patio extend the living space outdoors. The result is a home that makes it easy to enjoy a morning coffee outside, gather with friends, or simply take in the quiet at the end of the day.
The main living level brings the kitchen, dining area and living room together in an inviting great-room layout. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with granite countertops, farmhouse-style cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, while recessed lighting adds a clean, contemporary touch. A beautiful stained-glass window adds an unexpected bit of character, illuminating the stairway and giving the home a detail you’re likely to remember.
The thoughtful floor plan offers flexibility, with one bedroom and bath on the lower main level and two additional bedrooms and a bath upstairs. Above them, a spacious loft nook provides an appealing spot for a home office, reading area or whatever space your life calls for. The upstairs bath includes a bathtub.
There’s also plenty of practical space where you need it. The oversized two-car garage includes a substantial additional storage area that could offer possibilities for a workspace or multipurpose area, depending on your needs.
And then there’s the setting. Step outside and the surrounding greenery becomes part of the experience without overwhelming it. Between the decks, patio, mature trees and peaceful hillside, this is a place where indoor and outdoor living come naturally. An adjacent lot is also available for purchase, offering an additional opportunity for a buyer interested in the property and its surroundings.
5250 Leona Street is the kind of home that reveals itself gradually—the light, the outdoor spaces, the unexpected details and, perhaps most of all, the sense of quiet. Come see how it feels in person.
