About This Property
Two units on one property with strong income potential—live in one and rent the other or maximize returns as an investment. This beautifully updated 1925 cabin-style property in Montclair features a 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath main residence (approx. 1,538 sq. ft.) and a separate lower-level studio apartment (approx. 438 sq. ft.). Proven income history with the main home previously leased at $4,700/month and the studio at $1,800/month. The main home blends rustic charm with modern comfort, showcasing a stone fireplace, hardwood floors, wood-framed windows, exposed beam ceilings, and classic paneling. The remodeled kitchen features natural wood cabinetry and upgraded stainless-steel appliances including a gas cooktop, double ovens, built-in microwave, and dishwasher. The studio apartment offers a private entrance, full kitchen, and separate bath, ideal for rental income, guests, or extended family. Set among stately oaks, the property features stamped concrete walkways, outdoor patios, a level terraced yard, and a new front deck with filtered views of downtown Oakland and a glimpse of the Bay. A detached two-car garage/storage unit adds convenience. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Montclair, shops, dining, and easy access to Highways 13 and 24, Montclair is a pedestrian friendly village giving it a true, small town feel, yet just minutes to Oakland, Berkeley and San Francisco. Open 4/19 2-4 PM.
