Storybook charm meets modern comfort in this striking Tudor nestled in Oakland’s Maxwell Park. A turret-style entry sets the tone, welcoming you into an extra-large living room bathed in natural light, anchored by an original fireplace and beautifully refinished hardwood floors. The formal dining room leads into a spacious kitchen with new appliances and a sunny breakfast nook—ideal for morning coffee or casual meals. A generously sized bedroom and full bath on the main level offer comfort and flexibility, while upstairs, a dramatic staircase opens to a dedicated home office or flex space between two bright, roomy bedrooms. The remodeled bathroom embraces the home’s Tudor character with charming sloped rooflines, and a unique pass-through closet adds a playful, storybook touch between the bedrooms. Out back, enjoy a large deck, a DG patio, and a long side yard surrounded by drought-tolerant landscaping. A detached two-car garage adds functionality and potential. Located near Melrose Leadership Academy, Degrees Plato, Ghost Town Brewing, and just blocks from the festive Picardy Drive holiday lights, 2956 55th Ave delivers timeless character with the best of Oakland living.
