Property Description
Reimagined from the inside out, 1017 56th Street is the result of a thoughtful vision to create not simply a house, but a home. Extensively renovated with care, the transformation extends far beyond cosmetic updates. Major improvements include a new roof and gutters, replacement of the original knob-and-tube wiring with a modern electrical system and new breaker panel, new water and gas piping, new drywall, fresh interior and exterior paint, updated lighting, new flooring, and numerous additional improvements. Together, these upgrades provide the comfort and reliability of modern systems while thoughtfully preserving the home's original character. Natural light fills the inviting three-bedroom, two-bath layout, where high ceilings, hardwood and tile flooring, crown molding, ceiling fans, and refreshed finishes create a welcoming atmosphere. The remodeled kitchen is designed for everyday living, featuring quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and an eat-in dining area. Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully renovated with updated plumbing fixtures, lighting, flooring and quartz surfaces. Situated on a 3,640± sq. ft. lot, the property offers a covered front porch, fenced yard, low-maintenance landscaping, and a gazebo-providing inviting spaces to relax or gather outdoors. Conveniently located in Oakland's Gaskill neighborhood near the Berkeley and Emeryville borders, the home offers easy access to shopping, dining, parks, transit, and major commute routes. A thoughtfully reimagined home where timeless character meets the comfort and convenience of modern living.
