About This Home
As of December 2024Surprise end-of-year treat in North Oakland! This lovely bungalow has just been updated by design-builder NurtureSource, enhancing both aesthetics and function, respectful of the vintage details. The HOUSE has 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. The COTTAGE (converted garage) has 1 bedroom, 1 bath, kitchenette, and has been used as a productive short term rental. You'll appreciate the remodeled kitchen and main bath, plus new lighting, paint, and expansion of hardwood floors to almost full coverage. Other house updates include new wiring, furnace, and water heater. With the backyard deck and garden, this is easy living in an attractive place. And the location, near Rockridge, Temescal, and Berkeley, provides easy access to amazing shops, restaurants, and transportation options.
