Description

An exceptional custom-built home nestled perfectly beneath majestic old growth redwood trees, in the desirable Piedmont Pines Neighborhood of Oakland. Perched upon a wooded hill it evokes a feeling of being in the Sierras with beautiful inspiring views from every window. The story begins in 1965 when Marvin Gunderson designed and built this home for his sister and brother-in-law Edna and William McCarter. Marv, as he was referred to by friends, followed closely the principles and teachings of Frank...An exceptional custom-built home nestled perfectly beneath majestic old growth redwood trees, in the desirable Piedmont Pines Neighborhood of Oakland. Perched upon a wooded hill it evokes a feeling of being in the Sierras with beautiful inspiring views from every window. The story begins in 1965 when Marvin Gunderson designed and built this home for his sister and brother-in-law Edna and William McCarter. Marv, as he was referred to by friends, followed closely the principles and teachings of Frank Lloyd Wright. This becomes clearly evident as you explore the unique architectural details of the open concept living spaces bathed in abundant filtered light. This picturesque and rambling home was created with top-tier materials indicative of the era. The spacious redwood decks provides a wonderful gathering space for backyard barbeques, toasting marshmallows or gazing up to the skies on star-filled nights. A five minute walk to Redwood Regional Park.
