Presenting a delightful 1920’s home on storied Avon Street, in Oakland’s highly-coveted Rockridge neighborhood. Imbued with period details, this genre-defying bungalow was designed at the intersection of two reigning architectural styles and shows elements of both Craftsman and Spanish Mediterranean influences. With the original stone fireplace and stucco facade under red roof tiles, this home sings on first sight. The sellers brought this home into the 21st century with significant system updates such as a recently-completed seismic and structural renovation, drainage, roof, and kitchen and bathroom renovations. The main level features a stately living room that flows beautifully into a formal dining room with original built-in cabinets, and the sunny kitchen with breakfast nook - fully renovated with permits in 2017. Two large bedrooms and an updated bathroom complete this level. On the garden level, find a flexible layout that features not just a large primary bedroom with a sliding glass door to enter the backyard, a fourth bedroom and beautiful second bathroom, a family room, laundry area, AND home office! The charming backyard offers multiple patios for plein air dining and entertaining, a cozy evening around the firepit, and drought-resistant landscaping that makes it easy to maintain and enjoy. Zoned for Emerson Elementary and centrally located between both Rockridge and Temescal retail districts, the location actually couldn’t be better.
