Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1918, this bungalow features updates that appear to be 15-20 years old, including tile flooring and older cabinetry. While the kitchen has modern stainless appliances, there is visible unfinished drywall/backsplash area, and several key photos are 'digitally renovated,' indicating the actual condition is dated and requires minor repairs and finishing.
The property features an oversized basement with a half bath and a detached converted garage, providing exceptional flexibility for a workshop, home gym, or creative studio beyond the primary living area.
Situated on a level 5,000 sq ft lot with convenient side access, the property offers significant potential for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) or future footprint expansion in a high-demand area.
The home comes with essential upgrades including a compliant sewer lateral, forced-air heating, and a fully fenced lot with a security gate, reducing immediate post-closing costs for the buyer.
With 85 days on the market and three consecutive price reductions from the original $555,000, the property may face challenges regarding buyer perception and market momentum.
At just 936 square feet, the primary living area is relatively small, which may limit its appeal to families or buyers requiring more spacious common areas and bedrooms.
Welcome to a charming 1918 bungalow in Oakland’s Stonehurst neighborhood, set on a level 5,000 sq ft lot. A welcoming front porch, and a security fence and gate secures your parking.. Inside, the single-level layout offers 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths in approximately 936 sq ft, with tile flooring and forced-air heating throughout. The oversized basement adds real flexibility with a half bath, washer/dryer hookups, and plenty of room for storage, a workshop, a home gym, office, artist studio or more! Out back, the big yard and covered patio give you space for gardening, weekend barbecues, or simply enjoying the outdoors, and side access makes it easy to bring in tools, equipment, or materials for your next project. The detached converted garage includes workshop space, and open parking is available on site. Additional highlights include a compliant sewer lateral and no HOA. With a lot this size, buyers interested in ADU potential are encouraged to verify options with the City of Oakland. A great opportunity to own a classic Oakland bungalow with room to grow.
