Lakefront in Oakley's Summer Lake: Space, a Court, and a Private Dock

A two-story Summer Lake home with roughly 3,300 square feet, four bedrooms, three baths, downstairs living flexibility, and a backyard that meets the water with private dock access.

Lakefront. Private dock. Private court. Over 3,300 square feet. That combination is why this Summer Lake tour exists.

Oakley's Summer Lake community is one of those East County pockets people search by name — planned around water, trails, and larger two-story homes. This property sits on a court with a backyard that doesn't just view the lake; it accesses it.

Scale and flexibility inside

Four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a full bedroom and bath downstairs — the layout people want when they need main-floor options without giving up upstairs space. Add bonus / office flex rooms and you get a house that can absorb work-from-home, guests, and storage without every room fighting for the same job.

The main living volume connects kitchen and gathering space the way modern East County buyers expect. Upstairs, the primary and secondary bedrooms sit away from the entry chaos. A three-car garage and a lot on the larger side for the neighborhood (notes put it near a quarter acre) support the "toys and parking" side of lakefront living.

The backyard is the listing

Private dock. Water frontage. The video spends real time out here for a reason — this is the differentiator against otherwise similar 3,000-square-foot homes a few blocks inland. Confirm dock and water-use rules with HOA docs; lakefront living always has paperwork behind the pretty shot.

Summer Lake and Oakley

You're still in Oakley — Highway 4 access, downtown dining, Brentwood shopping nearby — with a more recreational daily backdrop than a standard tract interior. Broader city context: living in Oakley.

Who should be watching

Buyers who want water access without moving out to Bethel Island, and who need the square footage to match. Comparing communities?
