Harmonious Living Amidst Lush Tea Gardens. Step into a sanctuary of timeless design and natural tranquility in the Oakland Hills. Designed by renowned UC architect Seiichi Kami, this authentic Japanese Minka-style wooden home masterfully blends traditional craftsmanship with modern sophistication.

Sunlight through floor-to-ceiling windows illuminates the open-concept living area, framing views of meticulously curated Japanese tea gardens and Knowland Park beyond. The minimalist design invites both quiet reflection and effortless entertaining. Step onto the wrap-around deck and immerse yourself in a private oasis. The Zen-inspired gardens feature tranquil koi ponds, stone pathways, and sculpted maples. This outdoor haven elevates everyday moments into rituals of peace.
