Piedmont Pines Home with Panoramic Views The Oakland Hills have nice, large homes. This one is up on Skyline Blvd. in a part called Piedmont Pines between Shepherd Canyon and Joaquin Miller Park. Many cyclists go up there for a fun, scenic, and tough ride. Because of the terrain, homes here are either upslope or downslope. They require very strong foundations. This home is on the downslope with a garage and storage areas at road level, and the house set below. This home has: 4 bedrooms 3 bathroom 3,200 sq. ft. 6,330 sq. ft. lot 2 car detached garage Built 1978 It's a big house. The kitchen is huge. Off the living room and dining room is a deck that overlooks a canyon and provides panoramic views of the bay. The fireplace is two sided, that is, it heats the living room and a bedroom/offi...

I was thinking about what to blog today and I though that I would blog about something that tied in with yesterday's posting. Yesterday I had mentioned that to our East is a vast expanse of open land and parks that strech all the way to San Ramon and Danville. I want to mention today that we have a wonderful atttraction high in the Oakland Hills.  The Chabot Space & Science Center is the third reincarnation of the Oakland Observatory.  The first location was located downtown in 1883.  The second location, built in 1915 was located on Mountian Boulevard in the Leona Heights neighborhood.  They have a fantastic IMAX dome as well as a full dome planetarium. They have viewings through the space telescopes on Friday and Saturday nights.  I am going to have to do that one of these evening.   ...

Today was our Prudential Grand Lake office meeting.  After going over the new listings, changes and closes we went on our Prudential tour of the Piedmont, Montclair and Grand Lake office new listings *** Another great reason to list with Prudential *** One of the homes on today's tour was over on Osborne Court in the Piedmont Pines area of Oakland.  I noticed that many of the homes in the area ring true to W.R. Yelland as the architect for the tract! I had never been up on Castle Drive before, but as I drove up the hill, there they were a whole grouping of Yellandesque designs.  I just love being a Realtor and exploring areas I haven't been to before. I have been in the proximity of this area before, because on the other end of Holyrood Drive is Ascot Drive and another known documented ...

There are many positive signs with the nice rebound of the stock market due to the Fed lowering their rate, inflation appears to be under check, we are still experiencing job growth (although minimal), interest rates have leveled off and have even come down a bit, and it appears that the sub-prime fiasco can be managed. In spite of these encouraging trends the housing market has entered a period of a stalemate----buyers are in a state of ennui believing prices will drop further and sellers thinking they still can get the price their neighbor received six months ago. Multiple offers have become scarce in most markets with the exception of particular areas in SF and Montclair/Piedmont/Berkeley where 45% of sales were involved in multiple offers. Again showing that short supply in some are...
