After nearly 40 years with the same family, this two bedroom Glenview home is ready for its next chapter. Perched above the street with lovely neighborhood views, this charming bungalow blends original character, thoughtful updates, and exciting potential. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors and abundant natural light create a warm and inviting living room anchored by a brick fireplace. The original pocket doors connect to the dining room featuring a classic built-in and is perfect for dinners with friends and family. The kitchen has been nicely updated with new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances. There are two well sized bedrooms with an adjoining bathroom recently refreshed with a new tub, shower and vanity. Outside, the large and tranquil backyard provides plenty of room to garden, play, and entertain. Dine al fresco and relax under the beautiful redwood tree. A cozy basement room offers additional storage or flexible bonus space. It has history as the ultimate kids play space. Off-street parking completes the package. A wonderful opportunity to build equity in one of Oakland's most beloved neighborhoods. Ideally located near Dimond Park, Bombera, Grand Lake Kitchen, La Farine, Farmer Joe's, Lake Merritt, downtown Oakland, neighborhood cafés, parks, highly regarded schools, and countless local favorites, this is a wonderful opportunity to become part of the next chapter of a home—and a neighborhood—that people rarely want to leave.
