About This Home
As of June 2025NEW PRICE! Tucked away on a peaceful side street just 2 blocks from Lake Merritt, this home’s modest exterior belies the hidden gorgeous gem inside! Enter into a calm, bright, airy, and expansive open layout, and leave the city outside your doorstep. The living room features cathedral ceilings w/ skylights, bay windows, and abundant natural light. With hardwood floors throughout, this level offers a full bath, and a spacious kitchen and dining area perfect for gatherings. The kitchen has natural wood countertops & stainless appliances. Beyond the kitchen is the laundry room & pretty French doors that lead to the rear bedroom or office. Here you’ll find a Murphy bed and sliding doors leading to a charming patio. The patio showcases newer fencing and a deck with built-in benches, a cedar hot tub, and a fire pit – a perfect place to relax and unwind! Upstairs is the primary bedroom with a full bath and generous closet space, and a 3rd small bedroom, ideal as an office or guest room, that offers a peek-a-boo view of the lake. You’ll love living in the Lake Merritt area, close to Grand Lake and Lakeshore restaurants, wine bars, cafés, and the historic Grand Lake movie theater. Convenient commuter access to downtown Oakland, BART, and freeways.
