Welcome to Crocker Highlands
Directly south of the city of Piedmont and east of downtown Oakland is the charming community of Crocker Highlands, also referred to as Trestle Glen. The remaining trestles that can be found in some of the homes here pay homage to the old commuter rail system that used to service many East Bay communities.
The woodsy glen of Crocker Highlands/Trestle Glen is ideal for those who love traditional architecture and mature gardens. One of Oakland's top elementary schools can be found here as well.
Nestled along curving roads, Crocker Highlands and Trestle Glen real estate includes a variety of Craftsman, prairie, and neo-Mediterranean-style homes from the '20s, '30s and '40s, many designed by famed architects Julia Morgan and Bernard Maybeck. In fact, many Crocker Highlands residents belong to the Lakeshore Homes Association, the second-oldest homeowners association west of the Mississippi, which is dedicated to preserving and increasing the 'wonderful natural beauty of [each] property.'
Nearby conveniences include a variety of lively shops and restaurants in the Grand Lake/Lakeshore area.
