Good
TeardownExcellent
Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1904, the property has undergone significant renovations that make it move-in ready. The lower unit was fully renovated in 2016 (8 years ago), and the upper unit features a modern eat-in kitchen with quartz counters and updated bathrooms with contemporary fixtures. The presence of refinished oak floors and 'pet-proof' Pergo suggests high maintenance standards, fitting the 5-15 year renovation criteria for a Good rating.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Income Potential & Flexibility
The two-unit configuration, featuring a separate 1BR/1BA lower level with its own entrance, offers excellent versatility for rental income, multi-generational living, or a dedicated home office suite.
- Prime Urban Location
Situated in the sought-after Mosswood neighborhood, the property boasts high walkability to Piedmont Avenue and Temescal, immediate proximity to the newly redeveloped Mosswood Park, and easy access to MacArthur BART.
- Functional Outdoor & Utility Space
The private backyard with a hot tub and deck provides a serene retreat, complemented by a two-car tandem garage and extensive standing-height storage/workshop space on the lower floor.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1704, other record living area = 1104. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
- Low Elementary School Ratings
The assigned elementary schools, Emerson and Piedmont Avenue, currently hold low ratings (2/10), which may be a significant consideration for families prioritizing local public school performance.
- Tandem Parking Configuration
While the property includes a two-car garage, the tandem layout requires moving one vehicle to access the other, which can be less convenient for households with multiple daily drivers.
About 455 36th St
Oaktown Character. Modern Flex. Rooted. In Mosswood. Mosswood is the neighborhood everyone drives past on their way somewhere else — and that's exactly the point. Wedged in with Piedmont Avenue and Temescal, it delivers the walkability and food scene, just tucked away. This 1904, 2-unit shingled Edwardian sits right next to Mosswood Park, whose newly completed recreation center just landed as part of a full redevelopment — close enough to use as a second backyard. Upper unit (2BR/1BA) features a formal foyer, formal dining room, refinished oak floors, and an updated eat-in kitchen with quartz counters. Bedrooms finished in durable "pet-proof" Pergo; kitchen in commercial-grade checkered flooring. Ready to go, no pretense. Lower level offers a fully separate 1BR/1BA unit with its own entrance, renovated in 2016 with granite counters, durable vinyl floors, and a new stove and vent — previously used as a rental, and flexible for a home office, guest suite, or extended family. Private, secluded backyard centered on an enormous oak, with deck and hot tub. Two-car tandem garage; ample standing-height storage, workshop area, and laundry on the lower floor. Minutes to Piedmont Avenue, Temescal, MacArthur BART, and multiple AC Transit lines, with quick access to Highway 24 and I-580/I-980 for San Francisco, downtown Oakland, and beyond. Character upstairs, flexibility downstairs, Mosswood all around. COME VISIT: 8/29-30 2:00-4:30; 8/31 11:00-1:00; 9/5-6 2:00-4:30.
