About Kathleen Kelly
Owned by widow with two grown children. We moved here when our oldest child was in kindergarten, and our kids went through the local grade and high schools. It's a great neighborhood! I live here most of the year, and only rent this out when I'm traveling. (PS. that picture of me is from a house designed by Gaudi in Barcelona, so don't think that's what you're getting when you check in here!)
Kathleen Kelly purchased this house in 1994
Why Kathleen Kelly chose Glen Highlands
Who doesn't love the San Francisco Bay Area? A little known secret is that the weather is much better in Oakland than in SF, because it is sunnier and warmer, but not hot like in the more suburban areas.
What makes this house unique
Enjoy eating or relaxing in the newly renovated inside rooms or outside on the new patio. Take a walk in the neighborhood and see the views of the Oakland and Berkeley hills, or turn the other direction and see the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges.

Exceptional!

Great house & yard for visiting family!
Very clean & spacious. Well-equipped with everything we needed. Beautiful yards. Quiet neighborhood. 2-Car driveway.
This house worked well for our family group, which included grandparents to kids. There was enough space & sleeping arrangements for everyone.
Host was very kind & accessible.
Comfortable, wonderful view and convenient location for Bay Area visits (especially East Bay)!
Kathleen's home is very comfortable, well appointed and fits 8 easily. We enjoyed the outside space and wonderful view, as well as the great kitchen and living room area! The house was perfectly clean and Kathleen was very easy to work with! I will definitely use again!!!
Wonderful stay
A number of friends stayed at the house for our graduate school reunion. The house is lovely, very well equipped and very clean. The deck with the view and yard are so relaxing. The house is near BART in Rockridge and convenient to shops. We had a wonderful time there. And the host was more than accommodating. We had a great time.
Beautiful home, in a peaceful neighborhood-perfect for family getaways
Kathleen was so accessible and communicative through the whole process, and we were thrilled to have the opportunity to book a stay in her home for our bridal party over the weekend of our wedding in Piedmont. It was a lovely space, with the outside areas being as cozy as inside.
We highly recommend working with Kathleen and enjoying this beautiful part of Oakland!
We have stayed in many VRBOs but none as nicely situated provisioned or welcoming
This is a lovely home looking over the bay that will convince you that Oakland may have more to offer than SF.
We LOVED our stay in this home!! Will never stay anywhere else!!
We (a group of 8 women) came to the Bay Area to celebrate my 50th birthday! This home was more than perfect for us! It is a beautiful home with an amazing yard and patio butnis also centrally located to everything we wanted to do!! Kathleen was a wonderful hostess, responded immediately to my inquiries, and even responded to a text asking for dinner suggestions. This
property will most definitely be at the top of my list the next time I am in the Bay Area and looking for a place to stay.
Map
Great location in the East Bay with views to San Francisco. Walking distance to Montclair town center with restaurants and shops. Five minute drive to Rockridge BART station and Rockridge neighborhood, with even more restaurants and shops. Twenty minute drive to Oakland airport and downtown San Francisco.
