Modern Elegance with Panoramic Bay Views

Perched atop Ascot Drive on a serene side street, this custom contemporary residence blends striking architecture with natural beauty. Boasting 3,709 sq ft of light-filled living space, the home features soaring ceilings and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that frame captivating views of the Bay Bridge and glimpses of the Golden Gate. The airy entryway flows into a sleek, remodeled kitchen and adjoining dining area—perfect for entertaining against a breathtaking backdrop. The mid-level offers a spacious living room and two bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with its own fireplace and private patio access. The lower level provides flexible living with additional bedrooms, bathrooms, and separate entrances—ideal for an au pair, guests, or multigenerational living. Just minutes from Montclair Village and commuter routes, this tranquil retreat offers the best of modern living in a coveted hillside setting.

Neighborhood

Tucked away in the wooded hills and winding streets above Oakland, Montclair is a small community with an appealing central shopping district. Sizable custom homes, along with a mix of Mediterranean, Craftsman, and contemporary-style homes are situated on forested lots, offering an elegant retreat from the city.
The Montclair Business District is a throwback to a simpler time before strip malls, megamalls, and big-box stores. Residents can find everything they need, from dry cleaning and groceries to restaurants. Local restaurant favorites include the Montclair Egg Shop, Flipper’s Gourmet Burgers, and Crogan’s Montclair Restaurant. Gourmet specialty items are available at Le Bonbon, and Farmstead Wine and Cheese. A farmers market on Sundays provides fresh local produce and baked goods. Montclair is home to fine-arts festivals throughout the year and a jazz festival in the late summer that enlivens the street scene.
