Charming property with stately presence on a corner location. Upper unit with welcoming entry that opens to a spacious living room with high ceilings, plenty of light and built-in window benches. Updated kitchen has window above the sink, the right amount of cabinet space and countertops for enjoyable use, and access to backyard. Nicely updated bathroom and laundry room add to convenience. Unlike the 'classic' feel of the upper unit, the downstairs has modern feel of engineered flooring, designer kitchen, updated bathrooms and a flexible floor plan also with backyard access. PSL compliant. Two water meters for the ease of management, in addition to PG&E. Detached garage, patio and plenty of potential, with central location near freeway access and downtown Oakland.
