About this home

Great opportunity in Lakeview Terrace, a classic mid-century modern building! Lovely 2 bedroom condo on Lake Merritt featuring a beautiful view of water and the historic Camron-Stanford Mansion! This delightful end unit has an updated kitchen complete with a quartz countertop, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinet space. There is a large open-concept living room/dining room with bamboo floors. This unit is one of the few east-facing, with an all-glass front, directly facing Lake Merritt. There is updated lighting, ample closet space, and deeded 1-car parking. The building has a pool, an elevator, and a shared app-controlled laundry room. Conveniently located near dining, shopping, farmer's markets, downtown, the Oakland main library, and is across the street from the Lake Chalet restaurant. The condo is also close to the Lake Merritt BART station and has easy freeway access. This building has recently undergone a huge renovation to bring decks and balconies up to the new California requirements (SB 326), and this unit has a new balcony and railings. Must see!

Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Lakefront Location & Views: The condo boasts direct, east-facing views of Lake Merritt and the historic Camron-Stanford Mansion from an all-glass front, offering a highly desirable and scenic living experience.
Excellent Urban Walkability & Transit Access: Conveniently located near dining, shopping, farmer's markets, downtown, and directly across from Lake Chalet. It offers superb access to Lake Merritt BART station and major freeways.
Modernized Interior Finishes: Features an updated kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinet space, complemented by bamboo floors and updated lighting throughout the living areas.
Building Amenities & Recent Structural Upgrades: The building provides a pool, elevator, and shared app-controlled laundry. Crucially, it has undergone recent SB 326 compliant renovations for decks and balconies, ensuring structural integrity and mitigating future assessment risks.
Deeded 1-Car Parking: Includes valuable deeded 1-car parking, a significant advantage in a dense urban area like Oakland.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fee: The association fee of $691.0 is relatively high, which could impact monthly housing costs and overall affordability for potential buyers.
Shared Laundry Facilities: Laundry is handled via a shared, app-controlled room rather than in-unit, which may be less convenient for some residents.
Building Age & Potential Infrastructure: Built in 1959, despite recent balcony renovations, the building's age may imply potential for older infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical systems) that could require future maintenance or upgrades beyond what has been addressed.
