Eastmont Hills, located between MacArthur Boulevard and the Oakland Zoo, is a residential and hillside Oakland neighborhood with winding streets and broad Bay-facing views. The area reads as mid-century ranches and postwar homes set on sloped lots, with pocket stairways and cul-de-sacs shaping a quiet, elevated feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the MacArthur Boulevard corridor near 73rd Avenue, where corner markets, taquerias, and everyday storefronts set a steady, local rhythm. The Oakland Zoo and Knowland Park function as the big outdoor anchors, with trailheads and picnic clearings close to the ridgeline. Eastmont Town Center adds a practical retail hub, while nearby King Estates Open Space Park brings a more tucked-away stretch of oak woodland. Commuter routes thread down toward I-580 and the East Bay’s broader grid, while the hills keep the atmosphere distinctly removed from the flatlands.

Well-kept Oakland Hills home near the end of a cul de sac. The gleaming wood floors accentuate the ambience provided by the surrounding trees and fenced yard. Enjoy having a cup of coffee on the upstairs deck just off the kitchen; you'll be treated to views of the surrounding neighborhood and Oakland hills. Enjoy watching your favorite movie or reading a book in the comfortable living room with wood floors and ceiling warmed by a crackling fire in the brick fireplace. The tax record says 5 bedrooms; however, the current use is as a three bedroom, 2 bath with an office and bonus room.
