This Oakland bungalow, just blocks from Telegraph Ave, offers original features blended with modern touches. Natural light spills through a bay window into the spacious living room. In the heart of the home, the kitchen is a modern chef's dream fully updated and all centered around the fully restored O'Keefe and Merritt range. The primary suite features an enclosed sun porch and a bonus room up a short flight of stairs. One of the home's most distinguished features is the finished basement, stretching beneath the entire first floor; complete with a full bathroom, useable area, and ample storage. The native plant garden features stone benches and a pergola. Down the winding path, find a secluded stone patio perfect for evenings around a fire pit. Unseen, yet vital, the home is equipped with cutting-edge electrical and plumbing systems, solar panels, an electric car charger, and a hot water recirculation system. Central heating and air conditioning ensure year-round comfort. This home isn't just a dwelling—it's a keeper of memories, ready to be passed on to those seeking a harmonious blend of Oakland's heritage and contemporary living.
