About This Property
THE FEELING: Full of character and rich with 1930s charm, this Spanish Mediterranean pairs original architectural details with thoughtful updates and inviting indoor-outdoor spaces. THE HOME: 2+ bedrooms, 1 bathroom and 1,260± SQFT with bonus detached office. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors, graceful arched doorways, original built-ins, fresh interior and exterior paint, and new lighting throughout. THE HEART: A light-filled living room with large picture windows offers a glimpse across the rooftops toward the Oakland skyline. A fireplace with beautiful tilework anchors the space, while an arched doorway leads to a spacious dining room made for gathering. The updated kitchen features stone countertops, designer tile, stainless steel appliances, a Viking range and a sunny breakfast nook. THE DETAILS: Original built-ins and architectural details bring personality throughout, right down to the wonderfully unexpected drop-down ironing board. The shared bath continues the home’s period character with classic tilework, a pedestal sink and shower over tub. THE BONUS: Just beyond the main house, a charming studio offers a flexible space for a home office, art studio, workout room or creative escape. Downstairs, the basement provides dedicated laundry and additional storage. OUTSIDE: The backyard unfolds into a collection of spaces to enjoy. A brick pathway winds through drought-tolerant landscaping with echinacea, iris and an established fig tree. A deck beneath the pergola, hot tub, dedicated garden bed and detached one-car garage complete the outdoor space. EVERYDAY LIFE: Morning coffee in the breakfast nook. Dinner with friends around the table. A good book beneath the pergola. Fresh figs from the garden. An evening soak in the hot tub. This is a home made for enjoying the little moments. AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD: Lively Piedmont Avenue, eclectic Temescal and charming Rockridge are all close by. Grab coffee at Timeless, shop along the Avenue, visit the Temescal Farmers’ Market or head out for dinner at one of the area’s many neighborhood favorites. Lake Temescal and the trails of the Oakland Hills offer an easy escape outdoors. OPEN SAT & SUN
