Property Description
Classic elegance meets modern ease at 636 56th Street, a beautifully reimagined 1924 residence fully renovated in 2022 by Millennium Living Spaces. This four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home blends architectural heritage with curated, contemporary finishes. A skylit entry sets the tone, with two bedrooms, a full bath, and a striking black marble powder room off the main hall. A split staircase connects to the open-concept lower level, where living, dining, and kitchen flow seamlessly together. A waterfall island, brass pendant, and zellige-style tile add warmth and texture, while accordion glass doors open to a private landscaped garden. Garage access and a gated driveway enhance everyday convenience. Upstairs, a bright family room and window-wrapped office nook complement a secondary ensuite and a serene primary suite with Juliet balcony, walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath. New systems including AC in 2022 make this home a dream. Set in Oakland's Outer Temescal near Temescal, Emeryville, Dover Street Park, and I-80, this is timeless architecture thoughtfully tailored for modern living.
