PENDING | Crocker Highlands, Oakland

Really happy for our buyers on this one.

We were able to secure this home with a competitive preemptive offer and get it locked in before the broader market had its shot.

One thing we’ve been talking about a lot lately is that the high-end East Bay market has been moving.

Good homes in neighborhoods like Crocker Highlands, Upper Rockridge, Piedmont, and parts of Berkeley continue to attract serious attention, and buyers are having to make decisions with more intention than they did even a year ago.

There’s no single formula for getting an offer accepted, but there is a process.

Understanding the property. Reading the situation. Knowing when to move early. Knowing when patience creates leverage. And yes, relationships and reputation still matter.

Really excited for our clients and looking forward to seeing them make this home their own.

Martina pays attention to the ones that quietly change everything.

For this project, the goal stayed the same from day one: bring the outside in and let the setting become part of the experience of the home.

With crisp white cabinetry already carrying the space, adding another bright white to the walls would have created competition instead of balance. So Martina tested, swatched, adjusted, and even pulled in our staging team (thank you for the extra eyes ) to land on Sherwin Williams Natural Choice across both the walls and ceilings.

The result feels softer, warmer, and more connected to the greenery just beyond the windows.

And one detail people often overlook: grout.

Grout color can completely change the read of a backsplash. Instead of creating contrast, we selected a grout tone that sat closer to Natural Choice so the wall felt quieter, more cohesive, and let the materials do the work.

These are the decisions that don’t always jump out individually, but together completely shift how a home feels.

Martina absolutely nailed this one.

PENDING | 1053 Rispin Drive, Berkeley

Just two weeks on the market and this Claremont Hills “treehouse” is officially pending.

This one was a great reminder that buyers still respond to the fundamentals: thoughtful prep, intentional design, strategic positioning, and homes with a setting and experience that stand apart.

Thank you to our clients for trusting the process and everyone who helped bring this one to market.

This one took a lot of behind-the-scenes work and intentional decisions along the way, which makes the result especially rewarding. We’re really pleased with the outcome and excited for our sellers as they move into their next chapter.

Some opportunities come finished. Others come with upside.

This Woodminster home already has the things that are hardest to create: expansive views, generous square footage, natural light, and a setting in one of Oakland’s most sought-after hillside neighborhoods.

What it does not have is someone else’s vision already built in. So we imagined a few possibilities for you.

Swipe to see conceptual visualizations exploring how modern updates could transform the exterior, living spaces, kitchen, primary suite, bath, and outdoor experience.

Because opportunities to enter a neighborhood like this, with this amount of space, this setting, and this kind of view profile, do not come along at this price point very often.
These concepts are simply an exercise in possibility and a look at how design can reshape the experience of a home.
Bring your vision. Keep the view.

NEW in the Claremont Hills

1053 Rispin Drive, Berkeley
3 BR • 3 BA • 1,934 SF
Offered at $998,000
OPEN SUN 5/31 • 2–4 PM

Tucked among towering redwoods on a quiet cul-de-sac, this reimagined modern “treehouse” blends warm contemporary design with the kind of peaceful canyon-side setting that’s increasingly rare in the Inner East Bay.

Thoughtfully redesigned throughout, the home offers light-filled living spaces, beautifully updated finishes, multiple private outdoor areas, and a seamless connection to nature, all just minutes from Rockridge, Elmwood, BART, and UC Berkeley.

This is one of those homes that truly feels different in person. Quiet. Architectural. Surrounded by nature, yet deeply connected to the best of Berkeley and Oakland.
