Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1931, features a 'renovated kitchen' with Quartz counters and stainless steel Haier/Bosch appliances, and a 'newly renovated bathroom,' both of which appear modern and in excellent condition in the images. Other areas boast well-maintained classic features like parquet hardwood floors and wood beam ceilings. While the house itself is older and some systems (like the visible baseboard heating) may not be brand new, the significant and recent updates to key areas like the kitchen and bathroom make it move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning well with the 'Good' score criteria for properties extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Situated in the highly desirable Crocker Highlands/Trestle Glen neighborhood, offering excellent proximity to local amenities, diverse restaurants, cafes, and highly-rated schools like Crocker Highlands Elementary (9/10) and Piedmont High (10/10).
Classic Architectural Charm: A 'fabulous Mediterranean architectural beauty' featuring classic parquet hardwood floors, arched doorways, cathedral ceilings, stunning wood beam ceilings, and a wood-burning fireplace, preserving significant character and elegance.
Updated Key Areas: The property boasts a recently renovated kitchen with Quartz counters and stainless steel appliances (Haier fridge, Bosch dishwasher), alongside a newly renovated bathroom, providing modern functionality and aesthetics.
ADU Potential & Flexible Space: Includes two bonus rooms, one of which is an oversized laundry room with clear potential for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), offering significant value, rental income possibilities, or expanded living space.
Spacious Outdoor Living: Features a large 8,635 sqft backyard described as ready for an 'ideal outdoor entertainment retreat,' complemented by a private balcony off the roomy primary bedroom, enhancing outdoor enjoyment.
Cons
Age-Related Maintenance: Built in 1931, the property, despite recent renovations to the kitchen and bathroom, may still present potential ongoing maintenance and upgrade costs for original systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) not explicitly detailed as updated.
Undeveloped Backyard: The description indicates the 'large backyard is ready for you to create your ideal outdoor entertainment retreat,' implying it currently requires significant landscaping, design, and financial investment to become a fully functional and appealing outdoor space.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention any cooling system, and given its 1931 build year, it is highly probable it lacks central air conditioning, which could be a notable drawback during warmer periods in Oakland.
