    What's special

    Located in Oakland's sought-after Fairfax/Maxwell Park neighborhood, 5137 Fairfax Avenue is where California charm meets modern luxury. Step inside and feel instantly at home. This light-filled 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,427 sq ft of living space that draws you in from the moment you arrive. The updated kitchen brings modern finishes and a fresh energy to the heart of the house, while recessed lighting throughout creates a warm, inviting glow from morning to evening. Every update made with care. The primary suite is a true sanctuary. A spa-inspired bathroom with a stunning shower and deep soaking tub offers a daily escape, and the dedicated dressing room- with built-in cabinetry. Outside, the large entertaining deck becomes your favorite room in the house. With glimpses of bay views as your backdrop, this is where morning coffee tastes better, where dinner parties linger longer, and where Oakland sunsets become something you look forward to every single day. The basement opens the door to exciting possibilities — an ADU, expanded living space, or whatever your vision calls for. All of this on a generous 5,200 sq ft lot, just moments from dining, shops, parks, and transit in one of Oakland's most beloved neighborhoods. This is not just a house — this is the one you've been waiting for.
