4504 Fairbairn Avenue

Set along one of Maxwell Park’s gently elevated streets on a generous 7,500-square-foot corner parcel, this storybook residence offers something increasingly uncommon: a sense of calm accompanied by distant views of San Francisco, Downtown Oakland, and the Bay. Its three-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath floor plan is arranged thoughtfully, gently wrapping an intimate courtyard that fills the home with natural light while creating an easy dialogue between indoors and out. The vaulted living room, with its exposed beam ceiling, built-in cabinetry, and warm hardwood floors, carries a sense of effortless generosity - rooms that invite conversation as naturally as they frame the view. In the kitchen, a Wolf range anchors a space designed for those who appreciate quality without excess. The garden extends that same feeling of ease. Level, private, and framed by mature trees, it offers the rare combination of openness and seclusion. There is room for long outdoor dinners, an ambitious vegetable garden, children's games, or simply an afternoon spent listening to little more than the breeze moving through the canopy. Practical details have been considered with equal care. An attached garage with interior access makes daily life convenient, while the home's corner setting enhances both privacy and a sense of openness. Throughout, the experience is one of quiet confidence - a house that feels as comfortable hosting a lively gathering as it does offering a peaceful retreat at day's end.
