1025 Stanford Ave., North Oakland (NOBE) CA 94608



New Listing: Remodeled Craftsman Bungalow w/Detached Casita

Welcome to this wonderfully Refurbished Craftsman Bungalow in the rapidly changing NOBE neighborhood. This is your chance to own that cute craftsman bungalow with all the bells and whistles! This home features 2 nice sized bedrooms and a "Magazine" quality kitchen - with stainless steel appliances, white cabinets, and a slate floor. The cook's will be happy and part of the action with easy access to the deck, as well.
The new bathroom is equally stunning with herringbone patterned tile floor and subway styled shower tile. The traditional living and dining rooms are formal, but the designer colors help make it friendlier. The fireplace is the center piece of the living room and the built-in china cabinet is the center of the formal dining room. Outside you have a perfect deck which is sunny all day long and located right off the kitchen with a half style French door - you will spend lots of time out here. The deck rolls right into the private backyard. The patio allows for a quiet place to hang-out.
There is a laundry room and partial basement for storage with access via the yard. The "Casita" really extends the living space and usefulness of this bungalow. There is a bathroom with a shower and a large closet.
French doors open to the backyard, and again you will have great access to the sunny south facing yard. It would be perfect for an au pair, guest bedroom, home office, or?? The seller has lovingly renovated this home with so many upgrades and all done with benefit of city permits. You can see the list of upgrades to get all the details. And, the sewer has been certified by EBMUD, plus there is a clear termite report.
This home is located in a rapidly changing North Oakland (NOBE NorthOaklandBerekeleyEmeryville) Neighborhood and is close to Emeryville with all of its Shops and many Fine Restaurants, including the New Berkley Bowl Grocery. Freeways, AC Transit, Berkeley, Downtown Oakland, the new bike friendly Actual Café and Sweet Adeline Bakeshop are close at hand.
