This is a lovely Spanish style old house in a beautiful safe area, very close to the Piedmont border, and easily accessible to Piedmont Avenue, Montclair village, and Rockridge. The delightful owner met us and explained things to us when we arrived. The house is a treasure trove of beautiful things to look at and use. The beds were wonderfully comfortable, and the huge master bedroom with King bed and expansive views. The main bathroom was a pleasure, the old tiles preserved, and full of charming details. Our daughter had the Queen room and loved it for the same reasons. Our son and his girlfriend had the downstairs retreat and enjoyed the privacy and comfortable bed. As the owner warned us, the downstairs bathroom is work in progress, fine toilet and sink, but unworkable shower, [need hand-held, to aim the water away when getting in, and a single lever thermostatic faucet]. Easy Internet, Living room full of sofas, great TV, lots of objets d'arte to enjoy. The kitchen was lovely with super gas stove, great fridge, and well equipped with good pots and pans, leading to a pretty sun room, and again, pretty views of flowering trees. There were thoughtful touches such as basic ingredients and seasoning.
