Come home to Portico Waterfront, a premier apartment community in Oakland's redefined Brooklyn Basin neighborhood, where the city meets the water. Set along the shoreline of the Oakland Estuary, Portico gives you a place to slow down without putting the rest of the Bay Area out of reach. Each studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartment and two-bedroom townhome is complemented by elevated finishes and thoughtful features inspired by coastal living. Most homes feature expansive windows with views of the water, while every residence boasts wood-style flooring throughout and a fully equipped kitchen with top-of-the-line Whirlpool stainless steel appliances, gas ranges, designer selected tile backsplash and cabinetry, and quartz countertops. Additional conveniences like keyless entry, full-size washers and dryers, smart thermostats, central air conditioning and heating make settling in easy. Select homes also offer walk-in closets and private patios or balconies. Life at Portico is designed with the waterfront in mind. Spend an afternoon at the resort-style pool and spa deck overlooking the Bay, settle into one of several outdoor lounges with seating areas, firepits, and barbecues, or meet up in the clubroom where dining, entertainment, and a community wine room make it easy to gather. Two fitness centers provide convenient ways to stay active, and the coworking space and meeting room set the tone for productive working sessions. Other community amenities include a game courtyard, onsite dog park and pet spa, bike storage, parcel storage room with package and refrigerated lockers, and EV charging stations. Portico is part of Brooklyn Basin, a waterfront neighborhood just southeast of Downtown Oakland with parks, walkways, marinas, shops, restaurants, and recreation close to home. Jack London Square, Lake Merritt, the Bay Trail, and other Oakland destinations are nearby, while convenient access to Highway 880 and a complimentary BART shuttle allows you to explore more of the Bay Area. Price reflected is base rent and does not include mandatory or optional fees. Detailed fee information and fee schedules can be found on the community's Leasing Info page on our Essex website.
