Footprint: 3,341 square feet (four bedrooms, three baths)

From the Agent: "Now on the market is a one-of-a-kind Eichler home in Castro Valley’s Greenridge neighborhood. Built in 1960, and reimagined in 1974 by the original architecture firm of Emmons & Jones, this unicorn-of-an-Eichler boasts over 3,000 square feet of living space, including a massive primary suite and landscaped backyard. The home has been respectfully updated and upgraded in all the right places, while keeping  original features intact, including an open-air atrium entrance, unpainted ceilings, mahogany paneling, woodburning fireplace in the great room, and the original globe lighting."

The home spans over 3,300 square feet, yet it’s fairly understated from street view. Soaring trees surrounding the property offer plenty of privacy and shade.
