Historic Charm with Modern Elegance
Originally built in 1905, this North Oakland home is a timeless treasure that underwent an inspired transformation in 2021. Designed by the renowned Jarvis Architects, the thoughtful updates and elegant expansion have elevated the property to a harmonious blend of historic charm and modern living.
From the moment you step through the formal entryway, the home welcomes you with an air of sophistication. A conveniently located half bath provides an ideal touch for guests, while the spacious living room lets in an abundance of natural light from the Craftsman bay windows. Flowing naturally from this central gathering space is a formal dining room that charms with original built-in cabinetry and a decorative fireplace. The kitchen, a culinary haven, was designed for both style and efficiency, while the adjacent family room invites relaxation with its open yet refined atmosphere. The family room is further enhanced by accordion glass doors that dissolve the boundaries between indoors and out, opening to a stunning deck that stretches across the rear of the home. Beyond the deck lies a detached studio space, offering endless possibilities as a home office or creative retreat. Completing the main level are two generously sized bedrooms, connected by a beautifully updated Jack-and-Jill bathroom and a laundry room.
The upper level of the home is a versatile sanctuary. An open office space provides a quiet, sunlit area for remote work or creative endeavors. This level also offers access to a full attic, a convenient storage solution that hints at further customization potential for those with a creative vision. Downstairs, the lower level is devoted entirely to the primary suite, a serene retreat that feels both private and indulgent. The bedroom is spacious and tranquil, with a full bathroom conveniently located just across the hall. Ample under-house storage adds an element of practicality, ensuring that every inch of the home is as functional as it is beautiful.
The outdoor spaces are equally captivating. The rear garden is a carefully designed urban oasis, featuring meandering stepping stones, a low-maintenance artificial lawn, and mature landscaping that creates a sense of lush seclusion. The detached studio space, with its additional storage, complements the garden perfectly, offering a peaceful escape for work or relaxation. Off-street parking in the driveway ensures convenience and security, an invaluable feature in this vibrant urban setting.
Located in the heart of North Oakland, the home enjoys an enviable position near Whole Foods, trendy shops, and an array of restaurants. Its proximity to major freeways makes commuting to San Francisco and Downtown Oakland effortless. This exceptional property combines historical charm, contemporary convenience, and thoughtful design, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy the very best of urban living.
