About This Home

As of November 2022

This magical 112-year-old Craftsman perched above the Lake is statuesque in her presence w/ her earthtones & sizable porch. The vintage door greets you & invites you into the substantial living room adorned w/ handsome rich wood trims, picture window & Heath tile fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases. The dining room is magazine-worthy w/ its beamed ceiling, thick wood wainscotting, expansive built-ins w/ lighting, & wall sconces. Adjacent is the lg. kitchen w/ commercial stove, Sipo mahogany slab counters, & window to the enchanting backyard studded w/ ferns & alluring shades of green. The contrast of such a sophisticated & cozy home that is just blocks away from Lake Merritt, the Mecca of Oakland, is for anyone who appreciates the artistry of vintage architecture & who wants to live in the mix. WalkScore=88! There are 3 sizable bedrooms upstairs, the largest w/ a view of the Lake, 2 closets, & a balcony. The rear bedrooms both open to a lg. sun-porch that has 3 walls of windows w/ beguiling garden views. The basement was used by the sellers as a home gym & a space for projects. Enjoy the landscaped backyard w/ tucked away patio & zen pond w/ fountain. Loved & well maintained by the same owners for 19 yrs, this one -of- a- kind gem is ready for the tastemaker city dweller!
