Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1908, the property is functional and move-in ready but significantly dated. While it features some newer laminate flooring and updated appliances, the kitchen cabinetry, wall-mounted heating units, and exterior surfaces show age exceeding 20 years, requiring cosmetic refreshes and likely system modernizations.
Elementary School: Crocker Highlands Elementary School (9/10).
With one unit delivered vacant and oversized 3-bedroom layouts, this property is ideal for house-hacking or investors looking to capture market-rate rents immediately.
Boasting nearly 3,000 square feet, the units offer rare, generous floor plans and 3-bedroom configurations that are increasingly difficult to find in the Oakland duplex market.
The 1908 construction and 'bring your vision' messaging suggest the property requires significant capital investment to modernize and reach its full market potential.
While conveniently located across from an elementary school, the low performance ratings of the immediate neighborhood schools may impact long-term resale appeal for some families.
