Making its debut on the market for the first time since the 60's, this home is ready for an enterprising new owner who can envision the possibilities of this rare gem. This cottage, cherished by three generations, shouts opportunities galore! Measured at 1,208sf of living space on a 2,910sf lot. A perfect canvas for your creativity, offering an easy lifestyle near Lake Merritt. If you need to venture out, the world is at your fingertips—forget the car, you won't need it here! (Not to worry, the 2-car garage with ample storage space has you covered, and it easily could double as an art studio if you prefer). Living in the Oakland Avenue/Harrison Street neighborhood, everyday errands become a pleasant stroll rather than a chore. Your new home is a mere 2 miles from the lake, making morning walks a dream come true, as well as visits to the farmers market, Lake Chalet and breweries. Peace of mind? Yes, as you're close to Kaiser (.4mile) and Alta Bates Summit Hospitals, along with convenient access to Piedmont Ave.'s shops & restaurants and Whole Foods. A walk score of 84 out of 100 and easy access to public transport and freeways. Why settle for a condo when you can claim this property as your very own to personalize. What a great opportunity. This is an investor's dream!
