Property Description

An artful reimagining of a classic Craftsman, this enchanting 2bdrm/1ba bungalow sits in the heart of Oakland’s beloved Golden Gate district - just moments from neighborhood coffee shops, the local library, recreation center, public transit, & more. The moment you arrive, whimsy & craftsmanship take center stage. Artisan stained glass, eloquent period details & thoughtful creative touches infuse this home w/warmth & personality. Inside, natural wood wainscoting & an original stone fireplace w/gas insert anchor the living room, complemented by built-in shelving that blends beauty & function. A charming country kitchen w/custom cabinetry, a remodeled bath featuring a shower-sauna + a flexible floor plan offer comfort with refreshing versatility. Enjoy watching the world go by from the welcoming front porch, perched above meticulously crafted stone steps or retreat through the back door to an expansive private deck—lush w/potted plantings on a drip system—ideal for entertaining or quiet reflection. An oversized detached garage opens the door to endless possibilities: a creative studio, home office, hobby space, abundant storage, or potential ADU opportunity*. This is a home that delights, inspires, & invites you to make it your own! *Buyers to confirm permisable uses w/City zoning.
