369 Hampton Road

Discover rare privacy at 369 Hampton Road, where an elegant Cape Cod cottage marries modern treehouse design, tucked away in coveted Piedmont. This airy retreat welcomes you with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and playful geometric railings, a design feat once featured in Sunset magazine. The thoughtful 1980s architectural expansion transformed this 1924 classic into a contemporary sanctuary that respects its heritage while embracing modern California living.

As you approach along the zen garden path, the day's tensions melt away. Step inside to experience a home where every room connects with nature through stunning original windows that frame verdant views and bathe the interior in natural light. Refinished hardwood floors create a warm foundation for both quiet moments and vibrant gatherings.

The updated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring new backsplash, elegant countertops, and a professional 36" gas cooktop. A hidden pantry keeps essentials at the ready. The kitchen opens directly to a spacious deck that feels like an extension of the living space—ideal for morning coffee, sunset dinners, and lounging with friends and family amid rare open space and treetop vistas.

The living room captivates with its dramatic ceiling height and architectural character, achieving a sense of expansiveness rarely found in homes of this era. Head to the adjacent family room to view your favorite shows, enjoy game nights or curl up with the latest book. This versatile space offers the potential for a third bedroom. The artful eye will appreciate interplay of light and geometry throughout these spaces.

Upstairs you’ll discover a large, airy loft that overlooks the living area—an inspired space perfect for a home library, office, creative studio, or playroom. The spacious primary suite provides a peaceful sanctuary with treetop views and windows artfully designed to create the illusion of a headboard. The primary bathroom, featured in Sunset magazine for its creative use of space, features a large soaking tub set into a wood platform, with clever storage on each end, ready for your linens or use as a clothes hamper. With two individual sinks and a separate shower stall, there’s plenty of space for your morning routine.

The large basement with several rooms and a forgotten bathroom offers untapped potential to expand your living space. Grab your contractor and imagine the possibilities: a home gym, wine cellar, art studio, workshop, or media room—all waiting for your personal vision.

The outdoor spaces transform this property into something truly magical. An architect-designed Zen-garden features built-in metal planters, handcrafted wood benches, a sculptural water feature, and an inviting fire table. This thoughtfully composed space provides both meditative solitude and the perfect backdrop for epic garden parties under the stars.

Located two blocks from the Hampton Sports Field and minutes from numerous parks, top-rated schools, and the Montclair Village shops and restaurants, this unique property combines privacy with convenience. This exceptional 1924 gem—with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and abundant flexible spaces—balances architectural character with modern comfort. The discerning buyer has a truly special opportunity to own a piece of Piedmont history.
