About This Home
As of September 2023Yes, a Maxwell Park home with panoramic bay & sunset views! Discover the perfect blend of modern comfort and vintage charm offered with this inviting 3bedroom/2bath home on a tree-lined street. Newly painted in and out. Spacious interior has the updates you'll desire - stainless steel appliances, newer laundry on the main level, hardwood floor, skylights in kitchen and walk-in closet which add even more light. Be sure to notice the vaulted beam ceilings in the primary bedroom & the Plus Room that opens to the deck. At the basement level, another Plus Room could serve in multiple ways - current owner used it as a hobby woodworking studio, but perhaps an office or just a place to relax, looking through the large window to the landscaped side yard. Storage is plentiful. Lots of space in the basement area behind the plus room, but also two newer storage sheds. Private backyard oasis offers outdoor living that includes deck, 350+sf paver patio with 130+sf gazebo, and a recently purchased hot tub. Tesla owned Solar panels. The lower portion of the fenced yard has a rock covered dog run area as well as a chicken coop. Yes, chickens are allowed in Oakland, but not rooster!
