About this House

Your urban farm awaits in this modern 2/1 Craftsman bungalow perched on a private sunny lot in Ivy Hill! As you begin your ascent to the front door, you’ll be welcomed by tiered garden beds populated with artichokes, grapes, and pomegranate trees in the front yard. A slice of the Bay can be viewed from the front porch’s elevated position.

In the sunny flat backyard, you’ll find a flagstone patio/walkway, a chicken coop, plus professional urbanite raised garden beds and fig, apple, pomegranate, and peach trees, all on drip irrigation. The farm-to-table movement is right outside the door!

Meanwhile, the promise of a cozy oasis beckons you inside. Freshly updated throughout, the interiors creatively blend old and new for maximum character. Many of the home’s original 1923 details have been painstakingly preserved – from the unique brickwork on the living room fireplace to the built-in cabinets with desk, original glass pocket doors, tapered entry columns, built-in dining buffet, wainscoting, and moldings. Distinctive and original hardwood floors throughout include a feature stripe and French knot in the corners. Original glass pocket doors divide the living and dining rooms. A peek-a-boo view of the Bay can even be enjoyed from the living room.

New lighting throughout gives the interior spaces a contemporary twist. The updated kitchen will inspire the chef with new butcher block countertops, new stainless steel appliances with a gas range and dishwasher, and a designer tile backsplash with floating shelves in the kitchen.

The bath received a makeover with new vanity and mirror, shower over tub, new tile flooring, and tile wainscot in the bathroom. Two bedrooms balance the need for privacy, and a built-in old telephone nook with a door offers additional quiet space.

Infrastructure upgrades include updated electrical wiring, updated electric panel and solar panels. A detached one-car garage, as well as a storage area and laundry room in the basement complete the property.

Situated in Ivy Hill steps from a corner market, Champa Garden and Xochi Cafe. You will also enjoy easy walking access to Park Boulevard, Lake Merritt, and the Grand Lake Theater, shops and Saturday Farmer’s Market. Commute in a flash to downtown Oakland or Lake Merritt BART by bicycle or bus. Have it all as you blend lifestyles farmsteading and enjoying city living in one of the best little neighborhoods in Oakland!
