Set on a cul de sac, the apartment building is in a safe and quiet residential neighborhood near some of the best spots in Oakland. The Grand Lake Theater district nightlife, food and drink - the Grand Lake Theater, the Star on Grand pizza, The Alley, Melo Melo Cava, Almond and Oak - all just a few minute's walk away. Only a few steps more to Lake Merritt and Lakeshore Ave shops and night life: Arizmendi Bakery, Philz Coffee, Cat Club. Near highway 580, it's an easy commute to SF via AC Transit or car, or walk to BART. Trader Joes and Safeway are also just a short distance.
The 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 800 square foot apartment is pet-friendly and located on the second floor, with an elevator for wheelchair access. Thanks to its North-West orientation, the apartment is remarkably quiet for being so conveniently located to 580 and nearby nightlife.
There is one slightly larger en suite bedroom with a bathroom (bathtub and shower) and a second bedroom with a private bathroom with a shower. Ceiling fans and wall heaters in each room along with new double-paned windows keeps this apartment comfortable year round.
Wired for high speed internet, the layout is perfect for a work-from-home situation, a small family, or roommates (on a single lease).
The kitchen has a built-in microwave, dishwasher, oven with a cooktop and refrigerator.
The apartment comes with a dedicated parking space in a private gated garage under the building, and includes a dedicated storage locker located by the parking space.
The building offers coin-op laundry with a convenient card system, an interior courtyard, and a lap pool.
