This is a well priced, spacious, one bedroom home that has high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. The open, two-level loft-style condo features sturdy concrete walls and columns. It’s a light filled corner unit with windows on two sides and fewer shared walls. Three closets provide abundant storage space. Enjoy a generous amount of outdoor space on the private patio. Included in the package is deeded parking in the locked, ground-floor garage. The San Francisco Bay Ferry, freeways, BART, Amtrak, and AC Transit are all a short distance away. A prime location in Oakland’s vibrant Jack London Square neighborhood, the many choices for restaurants, bars, breweries, coffee houses, shops are all a few steps away. Relax in the Tower Lofts rooftop garden a couple floors above, or take a short walk over to the Oakland Estuary waterfront and watch the sun set behind downtown San Francisco.
