This large 2-bedroom+ home with a family room on an oversized fenced in flat lot was once the home of a pianist who had a detached structure built at the rear of the house to teach piano lessons Located less than 2 blocks from the popular Avenue Terrace Park, a favorite area of Redwood Heights, where it is commonplace to see kids playing in the park and neighbors walking the neighborhood, this place has a true community vibe. Loved by the same owner for 23 years, who made meaningful improvements such as updating the bathroom and kitchen, adding a gas insert to the fireplace, electrical upgrades, adding 5 solar tubes for natural sunlight, updating the detached structure, and adding a deck and a new roof on the main house. Enjoy hardwood floors, all-level living, and a flat, sun-drenched backyard with endless possibilities, especially for those who have dreamed of creating an outdoor oasis, an urban garden farm, or simply a space to play and enjoy the outdoors. Up the hill are regional parks, blocks away is Lincoln Square with Safeway, Peet's, Jamba Juice, UPS Store, Sparky's, and more, and down the hill is the Laurel District of Oakland.

Sweet bungalow level in and out, with a couple steps at the entry. Nice bonus space behind the kitchen that leads to the deep yard with a detached garage and studio. Quiet neighborhood.
