    What's special

    Welcome to 2959 California Street, an expansive and stunning Craftsman bungalow nestled on a cul-de-sac in the heart of Oakland's sought-after Upper Dimond Neighborhood. Renovated tastefully and expanded with an addition, this property boasts 1,798 square feet on a generous 4,928 square foot lot. The welcoming front porch invites you into a world of warmth and relaxation. Unwind on the porch swing as you soak in the pretty, established front garden and peaceful neighborhood. Built in 1926, this lovely home features tons of original architectural details including thick baseboards, picture hanging moulding, subway/hexagonal tiling in bathrooms, a handsome fireplace, and that incredible porch with tiled stairs. The living room is welcoming, sunny, and comfortable, flowing gracefully into the oversized dining room. Both rooms are flooded with light and original charm. The bright and airy primary bedroom is generously sized with tons of closet space, and has a beautiful tiled spa-like bathroom with marble countertop vanity and skylight. The two additional bedrooms are well-lit and spacious, with generous closet space and vintage style schoolhouse light fixtures. The second bathroom features shower over tub, large sink, and stylish updates.
