Nestled on a tranquil street in Oakland's vibrant Berkeley border, this 1922 craftsman gem was meticulously renovated in 2015. With 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a blend of historic charm and modern amenities, it's a perfect fusion of old and new. Upon entering, you are greeted by an open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area that seamlessly connects. The kitchen boasts a charming peninsula and rustic island, perfect for hosting. Also on this level is a bedroom, powder room, laundry closet, and family room. Up the grand staircase, discover two more bedrooms and a full bath. The primary ensuite is a luxurious retreat with corner windows, dual closets, and a spa-like bathroom featuring a freestanding tub, double vanity, walk-in shower, and private water closet. The fenced garden offers wood benches and a covered outdoor area. An automatic gate leads to a spacious garage with an opener. Located close to cafes and restaurants on Shattuck Ave, including favorites like Nick's Pizza and Nomad Cafe, and with Ashby BART and easy freeway access to San Francisco nearby, you have the Bay Area at your fingertips. 6539 Whitney St seamlessly merges form and function, offering a lifestyle that is both sophisticated and comfortable.
