Property Description
On the market for the first time in over 40 years. Tucked into one of Oakland's most beloved hillside neighborhoods, this sunny and bright split-level Spanish Mediterranean has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully renovated, all while preserving the irreplaceable charm that makes it so special. Built circa 1936, the home blends storybook period details with the kind of fresh, comfortable updates today's buyers are looking for. 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and a bonus space offer you room to grow into, not out of. From the moment you step inside, elegant archways and warm architectural details set the tone. The inviting living room is anchored by a brick fireplace and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling window that floods the space with natural light. Flow easily into the gracious dining room, where a classic coved ceiling adds vintage character, and step out onto the deck for a peaceful retreat, perfect indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining or quiet mornings with coffee. The updated kitchen marries old-world charm with modern function: stone countertops, a new gas range, new stainless steel appliances, and a sunny eat-in breakfast nook that may just become your favorite spot in the house. Upstairs: Bay views and original beauty plus two well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs each offer large closets and lovely views of the San Francisco Bay. The full bath has been perfectly preserved with its cheerful lemon-yellow vanity, a true period gem that feels spacious and bright. Just a few steps down from the kitchen, the spacious family room with a convenient half bath offers flexibility, whether you need a media room, home office, playroom, or guest space. Outdoor living at its best. The wonderful rear yard is an entertainer's dream, with a brick patio framed by mature, established landscaping that wraps you in privacy and greenery. It's the kind of garden you can only get with decades of loving care. A one-car attached garage with interior access, plus a long driveway with room for additional cars, makes everyday living easy. Charm, character, original Hardwood Floors throughout the entire home, this home is a treasure set in one of Oakland's most desirable hillside neighborhoods. You're just blocks from the Redwood Heights Recreation Center, the heart of the community, hosting classes, events, and gatherings year-round. Top-rated Redwood Heights Elementary is nearby, and the neighborhood feeds into the broader Oakland Unified School District.
