Property Description

Behind a gated garden entry, 1357 E 25th Street unfolds as a surprisingly expansive and deeply cared-for Oakland home where original character and thoughtful updates exist in rare balance. Tall ceilings, oversized windows, hardwood floors, and graceful archways give the interiors warmth and presence, while the refreshed kitchen and baths bring an ease that feels grounded rather than overdesigned. Sunlight moves beautifully through the living and dining rooms throughout the day, and upstairs vaulted bedrooms create airy retreats with flexibility for guests, work, or creative space. The kitchen balances utility and personality with crisp white cabinetry, subway tile, stainless appliances, and classic checkerboard floors that feel timeless rather than trendy. Outside, the property transforms. The backyard unfolds like a hidden garden compound layered with mature trees, gravel paths, cafe lights, climbing vines, and multiple areas for dining, lounging, gardening, and gathering. Anchored by a pergola designed for outdoor dinners and slow weekends, the grounds feel private, established, and remarkably usable. Conveniently located with easy access to Lake Merritt, Glenview, Grand Lake, and Transbay bus lines, the home offers central connectivity alongside a genuine sense of retreat.
