944 57th St, Oakland, CA 94608

Recently renovated by a local home designer, and informed by his time living at the property over the last 15 years, 944 57th Street has been reimagined as a protected urban oasis in an uber convenient location in the North Oakland/Emeryville/Berkeley corridor. The home has the feel of an urban farmhouse/loft: light, open space, and landscaping are featured prominently; finishes are simple, a blank canvas for the new owner's personal touch; quality, enduring materials are used throughout, echoing the integrity of the layout. This property provides the ideal base for a sustainable lifestyle. Too many features to list, but include: new foundation with seismic strengthening (cripple wall, ground floor shear walls w/additional structural steel between heavy beams and 1st-to-2nd floor connection), new roof, new Pella fiberglass windows, Redwood siding and fresh interior/exterior paint, new tankless water heater, re-engineered open ground floor layout with 10' ceilings and recently refreshed staircase. Off-street tandem parking. BONUS DETACHED COTTAGE: configured as an office w/bonus sleeping loft, electrical/plumbing/sewer in place, engineered rooftop garden, has zoning approval for ADU (with optional approved ADU building permit). Don't miss this special and rare offering!
