Condition Rating

Despite being built in 1925, the property has undergone a full and extensive renovation, as indicated by the 'Fully refreshed' description and the modern aesthetics throughout. Both the main house and the ADU feature brand-new, contemporary kitchens with shaker-style cabinetry, updated countertops (granite-look in main, quartz in ADU), stainless steel appliances, and stylish backsplashes. The bathrooms are equally impressive, showcasing new vanities, modern fixtures, updated tiling, and contemporary lighting. The property boasts consistent, modern wood-look laminate flooring, fresh paint, and updated light fixtures, leaving no deferred maintenance and presenting as virtually new.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Fully Permitted ADU: The property includes a fully permitted Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), offering significant value for potential rental income or extended family living.
Recent Renovation & Modern Finishes: Described as 'fully refreshed' with 'gorgeous finishes,' the home presents a move-in ready condition with updated aesthetics and thoughtful design.
Income-Generating Potential: The ADU is explicitly highlighted as 'perfect for rental income,' providing a clear financial benefit and investment opportunity for the owner.
Flexible Living Arrangements: The presence of an ADU allows for versatile use, accommodating multi-generational households or providing additional flexible space for various needs.
Desirable Property Type: As a Single Family Residence in Oakland, the property holds inherent market appeal and is a sought-after asset type.
Cons
Potential Overpricing: The listing price of $795,000 is 13% higher than the estimated property value of $689,821.65, which may indicate it is overpriced relative to market expectations.
Age of Construction: Built in 1925, the property is nearly a century old, which could imply potential for older underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) that may require future maintenance or upgrades despite recent cosmetic refreshes.
Compact Square Footage: With 1008 sqft for a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom property (including the ADU), the overall living space may be considered compact for some buyers, potentially limiting comfort for larger families.
