Property Description
A Handcrafted Architectural Retreat on the Edge of Oakland 4 bedrooms & 3 1/2 baths Welcome to 5950 Grizzly Peak Boulevard, a singular log home perched at Oakland's easternmost edge, where city meets wild open space. Built by hand & w/heart, one-of-a-kind residence sits on 1/3 acre and borders 928 acres of Sibley Regional Park, offering private access to trails, nature, & expansive views of the valley below. Originally imagined in the 1960s, this land found its true calling in 1980 when architect Robert Helton & structural engineer Milton Leong teamed up to design & anchor a log home like no other. Crafted from standing-dead Montana pine & assembled on-site by skilled local builders, the home reflects deep attention to detail & artistry at every turn. Inside, the design unfolds across multiple levels: a parlor/music room w/soaring ceilings, an entry-level kitchen featuring handmade cabinetry by wood artisan Gerald Fassett, & a dining room wrapped in windows with seamless indoor-outdoor flow to gardens & a tiled outdoor cooking counter. A sun-drenched lower-level studio invites creativity, community, & connection, perfect for art, music, or entertaining, opening to a view deck and gardens that lead directly into the park. Public records lists this as 3 bedroom/2 bath house.
