Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1938, this home features a 'fully remodeled kitchen' with modern white shaker cabinets, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, and new stainless steel appliances. The main bathroom is also extensively updated with contemporary dark tiling and a sleek dual vanity. While the property retains some older charm in areas like the living room with its parquet flooring and the wood-paneled rumpus room, these spaces are well-maintained. The overall condition is move-in ready, with no immediate renovations required, aligning with a 'Good' rating due to significant updates in key areas within the last 5-15 years, despite the home's age.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Remodeled Kitchen: Features a fully remodeled kitchen with granite counters, new stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinet space, offering modern functionality.
Extensive Bonus Spaces: Includes a bonus rumpus room with a full wet bar, an additional downstairs bedroom with a full bath and laundry, and another versatile 'honey room,' significantly expanding living and utility areas.
Architectural Character & Openness: Boasts high ceilings and an open living space, complemented by distinctive wood beam ceilings in the dining area, enhancing the home's aesthetic appeal and spacious feel.
Desirable Hillside Location: Situated in the sought-after Redwood Heights neighborhood, offering a desirable Oakland hillside setting that often provides privacy and scenic views.
Ample Outdoor Space & Storage: Features an oversized backyard with mature trees and landscaping, along with a detached 2-car garage that includes valuable bonus attic space for storage.
Cons
Age-Related System Concerns: Built in 1938, the property may have original or aging major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roof) not explicitly updated, potentially requiring future investment.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a central cooling system, which could be a significant drawback during warmer months for potential buyers.
Potential Hillside Maintenance: Being 'nestled in the Oakland hillside' could imply specific maintenance considerations related to landscaping, drainage, or potential structural upkeep unique to hillside properties.
