A perfect blend of Craftsman character and modern updates in this sunny split-level gem. Located in the vibrant historic East Lake neighborhood, this home is a stellar condo alternative just moments away from Lake Merritt, restaurants, and shops. On the main level, you'll find the living and dining rooms connected with a classic archway, the kitchen updated with newer appliances and beautiful cabinets, and a mudroom. Follow the curved staircase with its elegant wrought iron railing to the private upper level retreat with a generous bedroom, a full bathroom, and the bonus "loft area"*, an ideal space for a home office, yoga nook, or creative studio. Behind the historic charm, you'll find updates galore: electrical, furnace, and copper piping, updated foundation, and newer dual-pane Marvin windows. The 1-car garage, retrofitted with an engineered cantilever column, offers parking plus laundry and storage space. Enjoy your morning coffee in the wisteria-lined low-maintenance yard space or down the street at Xochi The Dog Café. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Oakland history in one of its most convenient locations. *Buyer to investigate. Open Sat/Sun, 2-4 PM. Offers due Tuesday, March 31 by 10 AM.
