Storybook charm meets modern comfort in this striking Tudor nestled in Oakland’s Maxwell Park. A turret-style entry sets the tone, welcoming you into an extra-large living room bathed in natural light, anchored by an original fireplace and beautifully refinished hardwood floors. The formal dining room leads into a spacious kitchen with new appliances and a sunny breakfast nook—ideal for morning coffee or casual meals. A generously sized bedroom and full bath on the main level offer comfort and flexibility, while upstairs, a dramatic staircase opens to a dedicated home office or flex space between two bright, roomy bedrooms. The remodeled bathroom embraces the home’s Tudor character with charming sloped rooflines, and a unique pass-through closet adds a playful, storybook touch between the bedrooms. Out back, enjoy a large deck, a DG patio, and a long side yard surrounded by drought-tolerant landscaping. A detached two-car garage adds functionality and potential. Located near Melrose Leadership Academy, Degrees Plato, Ghost Town Brewing, and just blocks from the festive Picardy Drive holiday lights, 2956 55th Ave delivers timeless character with the best of Oakland living.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
