About This Home

190 Northern Railway

Hidden in the wooded folds between Oakland and Moraga, this former Stationmaster’s home is one of Canyon’s most eclectic retreats, a redwood cabin perched above a ravine where light, air, and creativity converge. Reached by a narrow, winding footpath through the trees, the setting is intentionally secluded and deeply connected to its surroundings. Inside, rustic board-and-batten rooms open to forest-view decks, with a vintage Wedgewood stove and a river-rock fireplace anchoring the main living spaces. Three bedrooms are linked by ship-style ladders, reinforcing the home’s unconventional layout and sense of adventure. Water flows from a private spring, with electrical and propane service supporting daily living. A separate meditation loft above the washhouse offers a quiet space for writing, painting, or reflection. This is a property for those seeking something outside the ordinary - an authentic blend of history, artistry, and nature. Just minutes from Moraga, Oakland, and San Francisco, yet a world apart.
