Crocker Highlands Real Estate – Traditional Residences, Easy Commute
One of the most architecturally distinctive neighborhoods of Oakland is Crocker Highlands and the surrounding areas of Lakeshore and Grand Lake, an area of almost exclusively traditional homes in architecture ranging from Spanish Mediterranean to French Normandy to English Tudor. Crocker has the feel of an upscale established neighborhood: well-manicured front yards, sidewalks lit with charming street lamps, friendly neighbors, and stunning homes.
Tour this lovely area at The Crocker Highlands Home & Garden Tour which takes place in early October. The Tour showcases grand Crocker Highlands Homes and Crocker Elementary Edible Garden/Outdoor Classroom. All proceeds from the tour go to support the Arts, Computer and Physical Education Programs at Crocker Highlands.
Crocker Highlands real estate is in close proximity to Interstate 580, making it a favorite destination for commuters and one of the most sought after Oakland neighborhoods. The Lakeshore shopping district is a frequent destination for shopping and dining.
For the more motivated, it is a beautiful outing to Lake Merritt and the classic Grand Lake Theatre, one of three movie palaces that Oakland residents visited during the depression years and where you can still enjoy an organ player before the Sunday matinee.
On Saturday mornings, enjoy the Grand Lake Farmers Market, one of the finest in Oakland. If you are shopping for groceries, you will find Trader Joes, one of the few in Oakland.
