Located on the border of Oakland's vibrant Maxwell Park neighborhood, this nicely updated, single-level Craftsman bungalow is ideal for first-time home buyers, a homeowner wishing to downsize, or those seeking to enter the highly competitive Bay Area/East Bay real estate market. Boasting a wonderfully preserved Craftsman exterior, the interior has been tastefully re-imagined for a contemporary lifestyle and features 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, an open living room/dining room/kitchen, and a flexible-use bonus space off the kitchen that conveniently incorporates main-level laundry. Original details include a brick and stone fireplace (now decorative) and vintage oak floors. The updated kitchen features quartz counters, white subway tiles and newer appliances. Dual-pane windows and new bedroom carpeting, plus a large deck off the kitchen. The spacious backyard has a newer shed, raised redwood planter boxes and a flagstone patio. Off-street tandem parking. Very sweet!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
