455 36th St, Oakland, CA 94609

Oaktown Character. Modern Flex. Rooted. In Mosswood. Mosswood is the neighborhood everyone drives past on their way somewhere else — and that's exactly the point. Wedged in with Piedmont Avenue and Temescal, it delivers the walkability and food scene, just tucked away. This 1904, 2-unit shingled Edwardian sits right next to Mosswood Park, whose newly completed recreation center just landed as part of a full redevelopment — close enough to use as a second backyard. Upper unit (2BR/1BA) features a formal foyer, formal dining room, refinished oak floors, and an updated eat-in kitchen with quartz counters. Bedrooms finished in durable "pet-proof" Pergo; kitchen in commercial-grade checkered flooring. Ready to go, no pretense. Lower level offers a fully separate 1BR/1BA unit with its own entrance, renovated in 2016 with granite counters, durable vinyl floors, and a new stove and vent — previously used as a rental, and flexible for a home office, guest suite, or extended family. Private, secluded backyard centered on an enormous oak, with deck and hot tub. Two-car tandem garage; ample standing-height storage, workshop area, and laundry on the lower floor. Minutes to Piedmont Avenue, Temescal, MacArthur BART, and multiple AC Transit lines, with quick access to Highway 24 and I-580/I-980 for San Francisco, downtown Oakland, and beyond. Character upstairs, flexibility downstairs, Mosswood all around. COME VISIT: 8/29-30 2:00-4:30; 8/31 11:00-1:00; 9/5-6 2:00-4:30.
