Perched on the edge of canyon in the Oakland hills, 3133 Burdeck Drive is a dramatic, light-filled, and welcoming 3BD/2.5BA (currently configured as a 2BD) 2,260 square foot home with an additional 1BD/1BA in-law and an ingenious, versatile floor plan.
Pass through the home’s entryway and you are immediately drawn to the expansive sunken living area, with vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and large windows overlooking the canyon. Wend your way to the left, and a remarkable open, circular floor plan reveals itself: from the living area, you take in the dining area, which is flanked by a row of cabinets on one side and dramatic views on the other. Sliding glass doors take you to the large, sunny deck, which appears to float above the peaceful canyon which stretches before it and features multiple seating areas.
Pass through an additional pair of sliding doors from the deck and you find yourself in 3133 Burdeck’s sleek chef’s kitchen, which is lit by a skylight and has Caesarstone countertops, a breakfast bar, and gleaming stainless steel appliances, plus the vaulted ceilings that grace the entire entry level. Tucked away to the rear of the kitchen is an office area, while if you continue your circular path around the entry level, you find a stylish half-bath with distinctive tile floor and skylight, and then a staircase leading to the home’s lower level.
Like the entry level of 3133 Burdeck, the lower level is dramatic, yet it offers remarkable privacy. In the expansive owner’s suite, you will find more of the large picture windows that are the hallmark of the home, a fireplace with a raised hearth, sliding glass doors leading to a private deck overlooking the canyon, and a bath with a vanity with dual sinks, a circular sunken tub, and a step-in stall shower.
Continue down the lower level hallway and you will find a second spacious bedroom, also overlooking the canyon, but with two large closets and two doors -- an ideal configuration for dividing into two bedrooms. Also on this level: a hallway bath with a quartz vanity with a stylish vessel sink and a shower over extra deep tub, as well as a laundry room with cabinets.
From a door on the lower level, you can explore the home’s charming patio/courtyard; from there, you’re drawn to the 1BD/1BA apartment that adds to the home’s versatility. It features an open concept living area and eat-in kitchen, and is accessible from both the patio and its own private entrance on the side of the house.
This incredible home also includes a two-car garage with internal access. A large, unfinished basement provides storage or expansion potential (please verify with City of Oakland Planning Department). It is steps from Joaquin Miller Park and moments from major commuter routes.
