About the Listing BMLS-OBOPACU 01 - BMLS-R01942824,BMLS-R01449499,BMLS-206540263
Set on a half acre in the Oakland hills, 2871 Morley Drive is a private, renovated mid-century retreat where architecture, landscape, and lifestyle converge in a singular, immersive vision. Spanning more than 3,000 square feet, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined from top to bottom by an esteemed designer, resulting in a fresh, contemporary interpretation of classic design. Every detail feels cohesive and intentional, less a renovation and more a seamless architectural statement. Walls of glass and multiple access points invite the outdoors in, dissolving the boundary between interior and landscape. A broad, elevated patio extends along the south and east sides of the home, offering sweeping outlooks and a built-in banquette ideal for dining, entertaining, or quiet mornings surrounded by the treetops. Inside, richly layered tones, organic textures, and warm finishes mirror the natural beauty beyond the glass, creating a harmonious connection between home and garden. The grounds unfold like a private Balinese-inspired retreat, shaped by the owners’ travels and their vision of a tranquil escape. Lush, terraced gardens feature sculptural plantings, winding pathways, and moments of discovery throughout. The gentle sound of fountains weaves through the landscape, while natural elements lend a sense of calm. A cascading water feature welcomes you at the entry, guiding the approach past tree ferns, philodendrons, and phormium to the front door. Beyond, the landscape reveals a series of curated outdoor spaces designed for relaxation, connection, and play. Fire, water, and sunlight come together to create a true resort-like atmosphere. The lower level opens to an inviting outdoor living environment, complete with a hot tub spa and multiple lounge areas. At its center, a sculptural pond and gas-lit fire feature form an intimate gathering space - an outdoor room perfect for evening conversation beneath the open sky. Meandering paths and tucked-away seating areas enhance the sense of privacy, giving the entire property a secluded, almost magical quality. Inside, the home continues to prioritize comfort and retreat. The serene primary suite includes a soundproofed wall, ensuring exceptional quiet and rest. Throughout, the home balances architectural sophistication with the ease of indoor-outdoor living. 2871 Morley Drive is more than a residence - it is a private hillside sanctuary, where mid-century design meets the atmosphere of a faraway escape.
