Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1966, the property is dated with a mix of partial updates. While the kitchen features functional stainless steel appliances and mid-aged cabinetry (approx. 10-15 years old), the parquet wood flooring, bathroom wallpaper borders, and older vanity styles indicate the home has not had a comprehensive renovation in over 20 years and requires cosmetic modernization.
Situated in one of Oakland's most desirable neighborhoods, the property offers exceptional walkability to College Avenue’s premier shops and dining, plus easy access to Rockridge BART and major freeways.
The unit features oversized windows and a generous private balcony that capture stunning, unobstructed views of the San Francisco skyline, Bay Bridge, and evening city lights.
At 1,219 square feet, the open-concept floor plan includes a dedicated 'plus room,' providing the flexible space necessary for a modern home office or guest area.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 1.
The association fee of $877 per month is significantly high for the area, which may deter budget-conscious buyers or impact financing qualifications.
Despite the spacious interior, the laundry facilities are located outside the unit, a common inconvenience for properties at this price point in the current market.
