Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1936, the property has undergone significant renovations likely within the last 5-7 years. The kitchen is updated with modern shaker cabinets, stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The interior features recessed lighting, updated flooring in the primary suite, and a finished bonus studio, making it fully move-in ready and well-maintained.
The inclusion of a downstairs bonus studio provides essential flexibility for a home office, gym, or guest quarters, significantly increasing the functional utility of the 1,380 square foot floor plan.
The property features a rare combination of a large rear yard for entertaining and a private, enclosed front garden with mature fruit trees, offering exceptional curb appeal and multiple outdoor retreats.
Maintaining its 1936 charm with original hardwood floors and arched doorways, the home is enhanced by large windows that provide abundant natural light and views of the city lights.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1380, other record living area = 1114.
With only two formal bedrooms, the home may face market challenges among growing families or buyers specifically seeking a traditional three-bedroom configuration at the million-dollar price point.
As a structure built in 1936, the property may require ongoing maintenance or future capital improvements to aging systems that are common in homes of this era.
Tucked into a beautiful pocket of El Sereno, right on the border of Alhambra, 5368 Oakland is a charming two-bedroom, two-bath home with original details, tons of natural light, and an incredible amount of outdoor space. Inside, original hardwood floors bring warmth and character to the home, while a brick fireplace and large windows make the living room feel bright and inviting. An arched doorway opens to the dining room, creating a nice flow between the rooms, and the spacious kitchen with attached laundry room has plenty of storage and counter space. Both bedrooms are generously sized, and the primary bedroom has its own large walk-in closet/dressing room. Two full bathrooms complete the main house. Downstairs, a bonus studio is perfect for a home office, gym, art studio, or guest room. Out back, the large yard has plenty of room for outdoor dining, gardening, entertaining, or just hanging out in the California sunshine. In front, a private enclosed garden with mature fruit trees offers another peaceful area to enjoy the outdoors. A long driveway leads to a two-car garage, providing plenty of off-street parking. Located on a quiet residential street just moments from Alhambra and South Pasadena, 5368 Oakland is a move-in-ready home with so much to love!
