Redwood Heights

Scenic hillside neighborhood for families

Redwood Heights, just above Mills College between the 13 and 580 freeways, offers many appealing benefits. It’s a scenic Oakland hillside neighborhood with parks, a recreation center offering classes for children and adults, a strong neighborhood association (established in 1944), a diverse population, and a high-performing elementary school.

The homes date mostly from the 1920s-50s and feature a wide variety of styles, including Craftsman, Storybook, and ranch, many with stunning views of San Francisco and the bay. Redwood Heights offers the perks of suburban living with the benefits of city life close at hand.
