A Handcrafted Architectural Retreat on the Edge of Oakland 3+ bedrooms & 3 full baths Welcome to 5950 Grizzly Peak Boulevard "” a singular log home perched at Oakland's easternmost edge, where city meets wild open space. Built by hand and with heart, this one-of-a-kind residence sits on 1/3 acre and borders 928 acres of Sibley Regional Park, offering private access to trails, nature, and expansive views of the valley below.Originally imagined in the 1960s, this land found its true calling in 1980 when architect Robert Helton and structural engineer Milton Leong teamed up to design and anchor a log home like no other. Crafted from standing-dead Montana pine and assembled on-site by skilled local builders, the home reflects deep attention to detail and artistry at every turn.Inside, the design unfolds across multiple levels: a parlor/music room with soaring ceilings, an entry-level kitchen featuring handmade cabinetry by wood artisan Gerald Fassett, and a dining room wrapped in windows with seamless indoor-outdoor flow to gardens and a tiled outdoor cooking counter. A sun-drenched lower-level studio invites creativity, community, and connection "” perfect for art, music, or entertaining "” opening to a view deck and gardens that lead directly into the park. Views: Downtown, Ridge
