Property Description

Push open the big, beautiful gates and the city falls away. What's waiting is a secret garden — the romantic, storybook entry that makes you feel like you've slipped into an English cottage, right in the heart of Temescal. This home was taken down to the studs and rebuilt. Behind the original double-hung windows and hardwood floors: all-new plumbing, new electrical, and a forced-air furnace. Vintage soul, none of the 3-a.m. surprises. At 901 square feet, your light-filled upstairs home lives large. New kitchen with stone counters and room to actually cook. Fresh bathroom. Original built-in cabinetry in the formal dining room. A bedroom with a fireplace, built-ins, and a walk-in closet — plus a separate den for the home office or the reading nook. In-unit laundry, so you never hunt for quarters again. Storage? You win. A private storage locker over 150 sqft with its own entrance — the bikes, the holiday bins, the wine, the someday projects, all of it. Outside, the common gardens are yours: fire up the grill, gather at the picnic area, wind the evening down by the fire pit. And in a neighborhood this walkable, Temescal's best restaurants and shops are two blocks away. Charm you can't fake, bones you can count on, in a neighborhood everyone's trying to get into. Fully remodeled to the studs: new plumbing, electrical, and forced-air heating. New kitchen with stone counters, new bathroom, hardwood floors throughout, original double-hung windows, in-unit laundry, wood-burning fireplace, original built-in cabinetry, walk-in closet, and a flexible den. Private storage locker 150 sqft with separate entrance. Common gardens with grill, picnic area, and fire pit. Walkable Temescal, Oakland location — 2 blocks to restaurants and shopping. 1 bed / 1 bath / 901 sq ft.
