Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1965, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready with fresh paint and beautifully refinished parquet wood floors. However, it lacks a full modern renovation; the kitchen features dated wood cabinetry, older white appliances, and vintage-style tile that, while charming for mid-century enthusiasts, represents aged components. The bathroom and overall fixtures show signs of being outdated despite the regular upkeep.

With a Walk Score of 94, this Adams Point residence is perfectly situated near Lake Merritt, Whole Foods, and the Saturday Farmer’s Market, offering unparalleled convenience and lifestyle appeal.
The unit features classic architectural elements including floor-to-ceiling windows, refinished parquet wood floors, and a spacious balcony that provides seamless indoor-outdoor living with panoramic ridge views.
The association fee of $652 per month is relatively high for a one-bedroom unit under 700 square feet, which may impact the debt-to-income ratio for some prospective buyers.
The assigned public middle and high schools carry lower ratings (2 and 4 respectively), which could be a drawback for buyers concerned with long-term resale value or educational district performance.
