Showing Sun 10/25, 12-2 PM.
Property is land value only, full reconstruction required.
Built in 1925 and fire-damaged, the property is explicitly described as not habitable and requiring a down-to-the-studs rebuild. Given its age of nearly 100 years and current unlivable state, it meets the criteria for land value/rebuild only.
Situated near the vibrant Laurel District and Fruitvale BART, the property offers excellent accessibility to local shops, cafes, and major commuter routes like I-580.
With a 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom footprint on a generous 6,250 sqft lot, this property presents a substantial equity-building opportunity for investors or contractors through a full rebuild.
Listed at $399,000, the property provides a low-cost entry point into the Oakland market for a detached single-family home with significant square footage and development upside.
The structure is currently uninhabitable and requires a complete 'down to the studs' renovation or rebuild, posing significant construction risks and high capital requirements.
The property is sold strictly as-is and requires cash or specialized renovation financing, which excludes traditional buyers and limits the pool of potential purchasers.
