About this property

Nestled beneath the canopy of a majestic cedar in Oakland's King Estates neighborhood, this spacious 1940s home presents an exceptional opportunity to restore, renovate and reimagine a property with scale and timeless character. Offering approximately 2,168 square feet, the home features generous rooms, abundant natural light, original hardwood floors, classic built-ins, period light fixtures and a thoughtfully designed floor plan that has served generations well. The lower level, with its own entrance, expansive family room, bedroom and full bathroom, adds flexibility for future living arrangements, workspace or recreation. The home requires structural and system improvements, including foundation and electrical work, and is best suited for buyers prepared to undertake a renovation. For those seeking to create a forever home or transformative investment, opportunities of this size, character and location are increasingly rare. Outside, the thoughtfully landscaped rear garden offers winding decomposed granite pathways, mature plantings and peaceful spaces that have been lovingly cultivated over many years. A long driveway leads to a detached two-car garage, completing a property with uncommon potential. Ideally situated near King Estate Open Space, neighborhood parks, shopping and Interstate 580.
