Property Description

Lovely in Longfellow! Terrific Colonial Revival triplex, handsome inside & out. Downstairs owner's unit is a generous and bright 2BR with living and dining rooms, kitchen with direct access to the backyard, a den, and 2 full bathrooms. Upstairs are two spacious 1BR/1BA units with eat-in-kitchens with sweet built-in pull-down tables and great light. Hardwood floors. Many original architectural details throughout like the beautiful divided-lite front doors, recessed tray ceilings, wainscotting, built-ins, and an especially nifty interior light well that all lend a simple sophistication to this spry centenarian. Plenty of off-street parking with long driveway and 3 garages that just might be better converted to workshop, office, or even ADU! Plus enough outdoor space to grow tomatoes and a nice spot for dinner under the flowering camellia. All this in a great North Oakland location just a few short blocks to MacArthur BART and all the great Temescal shops on Telegraph Ave. Quick easy access to Rockridge, Berkeley, Emeryville, and San Francisco. A fine opportunity for an owner occupant looking to offset their mortgage or the seasoned investor looking for highly marketable units.
