About this home

Nestled on a lovely side street just off 51st, where Temescal meets Rockridge, this charming, updated CA Bungalow duplex offers timeless character, flexible living options, and an unbeatable location. The property features two side-by-side 2-bedroom units, each with its own private entrance, classic period details, and comfortable, light-filled spaces. A long driveway provides ample off-street parking, while the large backyard with patio and decking creates an inviting outdoor retreat — perfect for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing in the sunshine. The home’s entire foundation was replaced and seismically strengthened, completed in October 2025, offering modern stability and peace of mind for years to come. Truly a versatile property — ideal for an owner-occupant looking to live in one unit while generating exceptional income from the other, or for an investor seeking strong rental returns in one of Oakland’s most sought-after neighborhoods (Buyer to investigate). Steps from both Temescal’s vibrant restaurants and boutiques and Rockridge’s beloved shops, cafés, and BART station, 4949 Coronado Ave offers the perfect blend of charm, convenience, and long-term value.

Condition Rating
Good

This 1915 bungalow has undergone significant updates, including a recently replaced and seismically strengthened foundation (completed in October 2025, implying very recent or ongoing work), which is a major structural improvement. The kitchens feature updated cabinets, countertops, and modern faucets, with one unit having all stainless steel appliances and the other a mix of white and stainless. Bathrooms are clean with updated vanities and modern light fixtures, though some tile choices (like the blue stripe in one shower) suggest a solid update rather than a brand-new, high-end renovation. Hardwood floors are in good condition throughout. The property is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, and major systems are functional and well-maintained, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Walkability: Strategically located where Temescal meets Rockridge, offering immediate access to vibrant restaurants, boutiques, shops, cafes, and the BART station, enhancing lifestyle and rental appeal.
Income-Generating Duplex: Features two side-by-side 2-bedroom units with private entrances, providing flexible living options for owner-occupancy with rental income or strong investment returns.
Major Structural Upgrade: The entire foundation has been replaced and seismically strengthened, offering modern stability, safety, and peace of mind for years to come.
Ample Outdoor Space & Parking: Includes a large backyard with a patio and decking for an inviting outdoor retreat, complemented by a long driveway providing generous off-street parking.
Charming & Updated Character: Retains the timeless character of a California Bungalow with classic period details, updated features, and comfortable, light-filled spaces.

Cons

Age of Property (1915): Built in 1915, the property, despite being updated, may still have older systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, insulation) that could require future maintenance or upgrades beyond the foundation.
Shared Outdoor Space: As a duplex, the large backyard is likely a shared amenity, which could lead to potential privacy concerns or require clear agreements between occupants regarding usage and maintenance.
Limited Specific Interior Renovation Details: While described as 'updated,' the listing lacks specific details on interior modernizations (e.g., kitchens, bathrooms, HVAC systems beyond the foundation), suggesting some areas might still require further investment to meet contemporary standards.
