Set on a half acre in the Oakland hills, 2871 Morley Drive is a private, renovated mid-century retreat where architecture, landscape, and lifestyle converge in a singular, immersive vision.

A broad, elevated patio extends along the south and east sides of the home, offering sweeping outlooks and a built-in banquette ideal for dining, entertaining, or quiet mornings surrounded by the treetops.

Lush, terraced gardens feature sculptural plantings, winding pathways, and moments of discovery throughout.
