Lincoln Highlands, Oakland

MCM fans, this one’s for you. Nestled on a sunny corner lot in Oakland’s hidden gem of Lincoln Highlands, this beautifully preserved and revitalized single-level mid-century ranch presents the best of both worlds: authentic 1955 bones and contemporary upgrades. 

Originally conceived by respected builder O.W. Johnson, an artful remodel brought new lighting, hardware, a refreshed kitchen and two baths, all while staying true to the home’s mid-century character. The floor plan is equally well-conceived, connecting three bedrooms and an office within luminous interiors that flow easily from indoors to out.

The living room captures the era’s signature aesthetic with original hardwood flooring and a linear stacked-stone fireplace set against paneled wood walls. A large window sweeps natural light inside. Open to the living room, the large dining room has original wood cabinetry and storage. The kitchen nods to the home’s mid-century roots while fresh updates like mint-green cabinetry, quartz countertops, a butcher-block serving bar, and stainless-steel appliances—including a 36" dual-fuel range—keep it functional for today’s standards. An eat-in area allows for casual meals. A large cut-out window offers a view from the kitchen to the family room, where sliding glass doors open to the backyard for easy indoor-outdoor living.

The primary suite enjoys direct access to the yard, a walk-in closet, and an updated en-suite bath with a walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms are generous in size—one featuring charming mid-century linear textured paneling and a built-in corner desk. The hall bath retains its original period tilework in light green and yellow tones, intact and full of character.
Outside, a private front courtyard and fenced backyard invite entertaining, gardening, or afternoons in the sun. The attached garage offers interior access, storage, laundry hookups, and a sink for convenience. A wrought iron gate wraps around the property, for an additional sense of security. 

This single level home is possibly the only one of its kind in one of Oakland’s most beloved neighborhoods offering a single level floorplan, indoor/outdoor connectivity, excellent style and a convenient location. Easy access to Highway 13 and 580, Montclair Village, Lake Merritt, Dimond/Laurel, Glenview, and Joaquin Miller Regional Park, and just a seven-minute stroll to Woodminster Shopping Center.
