Owned by one family for nearly thirty years and needing TLC, the present owners transformed this once unremarkable property into the beautifully reimagined home it is today. Remodeled and updated from top to bottom, the home has charm and curb appeal in abundance on the outside, and an interior design that is both sophisticated and elegant. The single-level floor plan includes an open living room/dining room combination with unobstructed Bay Oakland and SF Peninsula views, and features handsome hardwood floors and energy-efficient Andersen windows, both of which continue throughout the rest of the home. The spacious eat-in kitchen has an open, minimalist design with black matte stainless steel KitchenAid appliances, soapstone counters, Shaker cabinets and plenty of bright, natural light. French doors in the kitchen open to a patio that extends the width of the home, allowing for a seamless indoor/outdoor lifestyle and space to play, entertain or simply relax.
Respectful of the home’s original floor plan, the bedrooms and bathrooms are situated on a dedicated hallway to the left of the living room/dining room and kitchen. The primary bedroom is located at the front of the home, and has captivating western views, a walk-in closet, and a newly remodeled ensuite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms are generously sized, and share an attractive hallway bathroom with a tub/shower combination.
A special feature of this home is the exceptionally large backyard that seems to go on forever. Once completely overgrown and unmanageable, the yard is now a fantastic outdoor space for the whole family. The terraced yard includes fruit trees (cherry, orange, lime and buddha’s hand citrus), two large raised garden beds with strawberries, herbs and vegetables, a fenced, grassy area behind a new retaining wall, and smooth Con Heart redwood fencing. Best of all, a spacious wood deck (541 square feet) offers unparalleled views of sunsets over the SF Bay, 4th of July and New Year’s fireworks, and plenty of room for entertaining. Every detail of this backyard oasis has been carefully designed and thoughtfully implemented to ensure an exceptional outdoor experience.
7634 Sunkist Drive offers a home with nearly new construction & countless upgrades located just minutes from the open space and hiking trails of Redwood Regional/Joaquin Miller parks, the Oakland Zoo/Knowland Park, and the shopping and restaurants in Montclair Village. Add easy access to freeways, Oakland Airport and BART, and this exceptional home truly has it all!
