Charming Garden Cottage in Glenview – Walk to Cafés

Charming sunlit cottage with a private garden retreat, just steps from Glenview’s cafés and neighborhood favorites.

Tucked in the heart of Oakland's beloved Glenview neighborhood, Greenwood Cottage is a peaceful garden hideaway designed for comfort, charm, and effortless Bay Area living.

Bathed in natural light, this cozy cottage feels both intimate and spacious. Inside you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen with an inviting eat-in dining area, a cozy fireplace, and the everyday conveniences that make longer stays easy - including a full washer and dryer.

Step outside and the magic really begins. The cottage opens onto a large patio and a beautifully landscaped backyard with rolling green lawn, mature fruit trees, and abundant foliage. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee, an afternoon in the garden, or unwinding under the stars with a glass of wine and a good book.

The location couldn’t be better. You’re just a short walk from Glenview’s charming Park Boulevard district - home to beloved local cafés, restaurants, bakeries, and neighborhood shops. Montclair Village, Highway 580, and the best of Oakland are just minutes away, making it easy to explore the Bay Area while returning home to your own quiet retreat.

Guests often say the cottage feels like a hidden garden retreat: quiet, sunlit, and a world away from the city while still being minutes from everything.
