An oakland oasis with so much possibility

At first glance, 4209 Wilshire plays it modest—but step inside (and outside) and you’ll realize: this isn’t just a house, it’s a vibe.

Perched on an expansive, park-like lot spanning almost 9000SF (per public record), this home is your private slice of serenity in the hills, without living like you’re on a hill. The views alone are next level—look out over the hillside at the breathtaking bridge, the glittering lights of San Francisco, and a horizon that shifts from a golden hour glow to a sparkling cityscape at night.

But it’s not just the view that impresses—it’s how you get to live in it.

Step into the oversized living room anchored by the beautiful fireplace, and immediately you’re greeted with a sense of space surrounded by natural light. The dining room offers you a place to entertain or relax and has a charming pass-through window to the kitchen. The updated kitchen includes a breakfast area with a built-in corner bench that’s the perfect spot for hanging out, homework, or just enjoying a meal— and provides even more storage. A favorite and rare delight is the bright sunroom off the kitchen. Silhouetted by views, it can be your family room, brunch spot, gaming HQ—you choose! With 3+ bedrooms and  2 bathrooms, plus a secret attic hideaway perfect for meditation, mischief, or movie marathons*— the flow and floor plan offer something for everyone. Downstairs, you’ll find a large laundry zone that doubles as a utility room, craft space, or storage center.

The outdoor space here is unmatched: a grassy lawn perfect for picnics, pets, and play, a spacious deck for lounging, dining, or stargazing, a BBQ zone ready for hanging with friends, neighbors, or loved ones, a play structure ready for adventure, and quiet corners to unwind, garden, meditate, or just be.

Practical upgrades and amenities include a detached garage—ideal for a workshop, gym, storage, or creative studio space*, new interior/exterior paint and lighting, updated electrical throughout (good-bye knob and tube!), updated Marvin windows, and more.
In a world of homes that feel too small, too generic, or too temporary—4209 Wilshire offers something different. It’s got soul. It’s got space. It’s got that feels-like-home energy the moment you step inside.
