Property Description
SPECTACULAR VIEWS and 1757SF! Perched on the edge of Lake Merritt, this 1,757-SF corner residence lives like a house in the sky. A full wall of west-facing windows floods the living room with light and front-row sunsets stretching all the way to Mount Tam & SF. Golden hour here feels cinematic. Lake views follow you into the formal dining room, elevating weeknights and dinner parties alike. The updated kitchen pairs stainless steel appliances with generous counters and storage. Built in 1951, the home blends clean mid-century lines, hardwood floors, and timeless character. A spacious entry with bonus nook makes an inspiring office or add a wall for a third bedroom with closet. The stone fireplace with wraparound mantle anchors the living room, with a wall of built-ins for books, art, and vinyl. The oversized secondary bedroom offers three closets, built-ins, architectural detail, and room to flex-lounge, studio, or epic media room. The primary suite features ample closets, more sweeping views, and a private full bath with tub for unwinding. A dedicated garage provides easy off-street parking, and a shared sunny level garden offers fresh-air escapes. Just outside: miles of waterfront paths, the historic Cleveland Cascade, and the vibrant Saturday farmer's market. Big-space living. Iconic Oakland views.
