Craftsman bungalows and Victorians in northern Oakland
Most of the single-family homes and duplexes along Gaskill's blocks were built in the early 1900s. Craftsman bungalows, American Foursquares, National cottages and Victorian homes are some of the most common architectural styles. Buyers can find older properties in need of significant work or recently renovated options that blend historic details with modern updates. The neighborhood's houses and multifamily properties were built close together on sidewalk-lined streets, leaving little space for front-yard landscaping and backyard porches. Residents may have a small driveway or garage, but many people rely on street parking.
Move-in-ready single-family homes can sell from the mid-$700,000s to $1.4 million, and fixer-uppers can go for under $400,000. Small multifamily properties sell from the lower $700,000s to about $1.7 million. Gaskill has a median sale price in the upper $800,000s. That's higher than nearby Oakland, Golden Gate and Emerybay Village, but lower than Paradise Park, Santa Fe and Berkeley.
