This property presents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $825,000—positioned well below the $766,768 Fair Market Value by -7%. While the home carries a Condition Rating of 5, the spacious attic, full-height basement, and level backyard provide significant upside for forced appreciation. Located near Peralta Elementary (Rating 8), this asset offers long-term stability in a prime North Oakland location. This is a strategic acquisition ideal for Fix-and-Flip Investors or Contractors capable of executing a comprehensive renovation plan.
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1910, this home requires a full rehab. The kitchen features dated cabinetry likely over 30 years old, floors are in raw/unfinished condition, and the rear deck is currently made of plywood sheets, indicating safety and structural needs. The presence of an old wall heater and the listing's emphasis on 'adding value' and 'potential' align with the poor condition category.
Situated in the highly sought-after Bushrod neighborhood, the property offers exceptional proximity to Rockridge, Temescal, and Berkeley, with convenient access to BART and major freeways.
The home features a spacious attic and a near full-height basement, providing excellent opportunities for expansion or customization to increase the overall square footage and market value.
Located just 0.15 miles from the highly-rated Peralta Elementary School (Rating 8), the property is ideally positioned for families and benefits from the long-term price stability associated with strong school districts.
Built in 1910 and marketed as an 'opportunity' for customization, the property likely requires substantial investment in updates and repairs to bring it up to modern living standards.
With only 942 square feet of living space, the current layout is relatively small for the price point, which may limit its appeal to buyers seeking immediate move-in ready space without construction.
Opportunity and potential come together in this North Oakland home, ideally located in the sought-after Bushrod neighborhood. Whether you're looking to create your dream home or invest in a property with upside, this is a chance to add value and make it your own. With solid bones and room for customization, the home is ready for your finishing touches. A spacious attic offers excellent storage or potential for expansion, while the sunny, level backyard provides a blank canvas for creating an inviting outdoor retreat or enhancing long-term value. A near full-height basement area adds additional storage and utility space, offering flexibility for a variety of uses.
