Around the Block

Piedmont:
A small town that feels a million miles away from it all.

At its heart, Piedmont is a peaceful, residential enclave tucked into the hills. Families are drawn here for its top rated schools, strong sense of community, and year round local events. All while being just minutes from the culture, dining, and energy of Oakland and beyond.

Storybook charm and a fiercely proud community.

Built on a legacy of prestige, Piedmont is famous for its stunning streetscapes. Winding, tree lined roads showcase a gorgeous mix of early 20th century craftsmanship and beautifully updated homes. But the real draw? The people. Residents here are incredibly invested in their local roots, meaning you aren't just buying a house, you're getting a built in community.

Unexpected appeal:
Room to breathe and glittering city views.

Finding a backyard with actual running room this close to the Bay Area's major urban hubs is the ultimate real estate jackpot. Piedmont's elevated terrain delivers exactly that: expansive lots, panoramic views of the Oakland skyline lighting up at night, and an unhurried, peaceful vibe that makes you forget you are right in the middle of the East Bay.

The market:
Jaw dropping homes with unmatched access.

Across its compact two square miles, the real estate is nothing short of spectacular. The heart of the city features classic, sprawling architecture with magazine worthy gardens. Meanwhile, the stylish homes along the outer perimeter offer a massive perk: you are just a quick walk away from the bustling shops of Piedmont Avenue, weekend runs to the Grand Lake Farmers Market, and legendary sundaes at Fentons Creamery.
