Frustrated with limited San Francisco mansion inventory? Look to the East! (The East Bay that is.)
San Francisco has its Billionaire Row. The East Bay has Piedmont. Piedmont is somewhat of a "Beverly Hills of Oakland," a town nestled geographically in a bigger city, with its own city services and schools.
If you believe we need an AI Gulch-East or biotech gulch / incubators for East Bay employees, take a look at these remarkable estates for sale (two across the street from each other...maybe the ideal multi-family setup of separate togetherness?!)
The moment I toured these 3 homes, "incubator" and "co-living" came to mind as well as visions of lavish events.
1) The former Stanford Hunting Lodge offers lodging for many. Starting with the gated entrance and ample parking, this property continues to amaze.With 8 bedrooms and 7 baths, this estate built in 1913 could be ideal as an incubator or co-living.

2) If a grand estate featuring 9 bedrooms, 11 baths with entrances on 2 different streets plus several levels of beautiful rooms piques your interest, be sure to explore 52 Glen Alpine Road (LOVE the media room with a stage!)The craftsmanship of this mansion from windows to wood floors to richly paneled walls is simply stunning.

3) Prefer a more traditional brown-shingle home with extensive, landscaped grounds? Explore the beautiful 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom Colonial Revival at 2048 Oakland Ave in Piedmont.In addition to being a wonderful home, the listing states that the city of Piedmont has conditionally approved a lot split under the SB9 law. So, if you might rather sell off part of the lot for potential development, this could be an interesting opportunity.
