Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1980 (44 years old), the property shows some cosmetic updates like newer laminate flooring and neutral paint. However, the kitchen remains dated with older wood cabinetry and appliances, and the bedroom carpeting appears aged. It is functional and move-in ready but requires minor updates to the kitchen and baths to meet modern standards.
The property features a unique, expanded redwood deck with tall fencing, offering a level of private outdoor living and gardening space rarely found in condominium living.
The two-story design provides a house-like feel with separated living and sleeping quarters, including a main-floor half-bath for guests and the high-demand convenience of in-unit laundry.
Tucked away for privacy yet situated just blocks from local cafes, dining, and shopping, this home offers an ideal balance of neighborhood tranquility and urban accessibility.
At $675 per month, the association dues are relatively high for this price point, which may impact overall affordability and buyer interest.
The property is zoned for local middle and high schools with low performance ratings, which could be a significant concern for families and impact long-term appreciation.
Tucked toward the back of Oakland’s Laurel District, this bright two-story townhouse-style condo gives you the best kind of balance: close to the neighborhood, but tucked away enough to feel like you have your own little retreat. With 2 spacious bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and a functional layout that feels more like a home than a typical condo, this one keeps things comfortable, practical, and easy to love. One of the biggest highlights is the private expanded redwood deck unique to this home within the community. Framed by taller fencing for added privacy, it gives you the kind of outdoor space that is hard to find in a condo or smaller apartment. There is room to lounge, dine, garden, or create a cozy outdoor setup without feeling like you are right on top of everything else. It is the kind of extra space that quietly makes everyday living feel better. Inside, the main level offers a cozy living room with a fireplace, great natural light, a separate dining area, a space-efficient kitchen, and a convenient half bathroom downstairs, perfect for guests when hosting without sending everyone upstairs into your personal living space. Upstairs, both oversized bedrooms feature generous closets with floor-to-ceiling mirrored doors, adding storage, openness, and a clean modern feel. And for the everyday wins, this home comes with IN-UNIT LAUNDRY, one dedicated carport parking space, plus ample street parking for added convenience. Located just blocks from local coffee shops, restaurants, shopping, and everyday essentials, this Laurel District location keeps you close to the energy of the neighborhood while still giving you a peaceful place to come home to. With quick access to freeways and public transportation, this home delivers the Bay Area balance everyone is looking for: convenience, comfort, privacy, and a little outdoor space you will actually use.
