575 Valle Vista Ave

Beautiful two-story unit in Grand Lake! Lovely stylish touches with views of the hills, private garage parking, gorgeous backyard. Work from home, easy commute to SF, walk to farmers market, picnic at the lake - this is one of Oakland's most vibrant and beautiful neighborhoods. The apartment feels like a single-family home. An exclusive driveway leads to a private 1-car garage (with automatic door opener) with extra space for storage, and an outlet for an EV charger. The main entrance is up a set of stairs and tucked behind a large front porch, offering privacy from the street below. Once inside there is a generous foyer, modern kitchen with pantry, laundry in-unit, and a spacious great room with gas fireplace offering views of the valley. An open central staircase leads to two upstairs bedrooms with great light, a gorgeous remodeled bathroom with separate shower and clawfoot tub, and a large walk-in linen and storage closet. The home offers a great mix of modern amenities complemented by the original craftsman details. The shared and secure backyard is accessed off the kitchen; it is a secluded oasis and entertainer's dream, complete with fruit trees and raised veggie beds ready to be planted. Pets negotiable. Move-in date flexible after 12/22. By appointment only. This is a classic Oakland residence, constructed in the 1920s and recently updated and modernized throughout. Valle Vista Ave is a beautiful leafy street offering direct access to Grand Ave yet removed enough to remain a quiet and peaceful street. Grand Lake continues to be a premier Oakland neighborhood with amazing walkable amenities and adjacent to beautiful Lake Merritt.
