Property is extensive renovation needed.
Originally built in 1910, the property shows no evidence of recent major renovations. The kitchen features cabinetry and appliances that appear to be over 30-50 years old, and the interior finishes like the accordion doors and linoleum flooring are significantly dated. The listing description explicitly frames the property as a 'value-add' opportunity requiring 'extensive renovation' or 'redevelopment,' indicating it needs a full rehab to meet modern standards.
The generous 6,048-square-foot lot offers rare flexibility for the area, providing ample space for an ADU, home expansion, or a detached garage conversion to maximize rental income or equity.
Excellent proximity to BART, major freeways, and Oakland ferry terminals makes this an ideal hub for Bay Area professionals seeking convenient access to San Francisco and Silicon Valley.
Priced competitively at $399,900, this property serves as an accessible entry point for investors or DIY homeowners to build immediate sweat equity through cosmetic updates and renovations.
