About This Home

As of December 2025

Welcome to 4689 Fair Avenue, a charming three-bedroom, two-bathroom home in one of Oakland's sought-after neighborhoods: Redwood Heights. This traditional-style beauty has been thoughtfully updated to blend classic character with modern convenience. Step inside to find gleaming random plank hardwood floors and fresh paint throughout that brightens every room. Natural light flows in, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The updated kitchen is ready for your morning coffee routine or weekend cooking adventures. The spacious primary suite includes a newer bathroom. A home office is just outside the primary suite. The backyard is a sunny retreat with a large level yard and for gardeners there are two raised garden beds ready for your next harvest. Whether you are growing tomatoes, herbs, or flowers, these planting beds await your green thumb. With convenient highway access, you are just minutes from shopping, dining and all the East Bay has to offer.
