A Home With History This Rockridge gem comes with a uniquely Oakland story. The original owners ran a family tile business downtown, but when the Depression hit, they lost their building and relocated here to what was once a working dairy farm and one of the first structures in Rockridge. Back then, it was all pastureland. The home has been lovingly cared for by the same family since the 1930s. Now, it's been recently and fully renovated with warmth, style, and attention to detail.
