Features
Modern improvements by the current owner include all new double-paned windows throughout (with the exception of the vintage stained glass) and updated electrical and plumbing. All three bathrooms have been remodeled and updated as well, with new tile and fixtures selected to honor the original era of the home.
With the master bedroom and adjacent separate water closet and sink/tub rooms accessed from a semi-private hallway on the main floor, plus six bedrooms and a full bathroom upstairs, and 1500 square feet of semi-finished basement space — including a wet bar and brand-new full bath — below, the configuration of this house offers so much potential. One large family, multiple families; a co-housing community; an owner with a home-based business; rooms to Airbnb; a basement game room, workshop, or ADU; all are possible!
Upstairs bedrooms have all-new windows and tons of natural light; many with charming alcoves. Some closets include a half-size door to a second “secret” closet within. Each room’s configuration invites creative use, from bedrooms to home offices, to kids’ playrooms, to art studios, to guest rooms, and more.
Neighborhood
The Fairfax neighborhood of Oakland is multicultural and family-friendly, with easy access to 580 and 880 freeways, and close proximity to Fruitvale BART. Nearby modern condominium developments and a recent surge in new retail businesses indicate that this lesser-known East Bay neighborhood is on the rise. Adjacent to Fairfax, the Fruitvale and Jingletown districts in Oakland, as well as the nearby island of Alameda, provide a profusion of local cafés, artist studios, and gourmet restaurants.
