More Insights

Built in 1908 (118 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1908, is well-maintained with gleaming hardwood floors, fresh carpet in bedrooms, and updated stainless steel kitchen appliances. However, the kitchen features dated blue tile countertops and backsplash, and the bathrooms have functional but outdated vanities and tile. While move-in ready, the kitchen and bathrooms would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria for properties built over 20 years ago with renovations likely 15-30 years ago.

Limited Parking: The property includes deeded parking for only one car, which could be a limitation for households with multiple vehicles or frequent guests in a dense urban environment.
Absence of Central Cooling System: The description highlights natural light and a retractable awning but does not mention a cooling system, which could be a comfort consideration during warmer months in Oakland.
