Lovingly maintained by the same family for nearly 30 years, this spacious traditional home is ready to begin its next chapter. Set on a prominent corner lot in Oakland's desirable Haddon Hill neighborhood, just moments from Lake Merritt and the vibrant Lakeshore shopping district, the home offers a rare combination of space, flexibility, and location. Freshly painted inside and out, with a new roof, updated lighting throughout, and refreshed kitchens and bathrooms, the home has been carefully prepared for its next owners while offering plenty of opportunity to personalize over time. The split-level floor plan offers a natural separation between the living and sleeping areas. Just a few steps up are three comfortable bedrooms and a full bathroom, while the main level features inviting living spaces designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Natural light fills the home throughout the day through an abundance of windows and a massive skylight. The spacious living room creates plenty of room to gather and unwind, while the formal dining room provides the perfect setting for family dinners, holiday celebrations, and special occasions. The kitchen includes a charming breakfast nook for casual meals, and a convenient half bath completes the main level. Gleaming hardwood floors extend throughout the living areas, hallways, and bedrooms, adding warmth and timeless character. Downstairs, a spacious lower level opens the door to countless possibilities. Complete with its own full kitchen, full bathroom, a fourth bedroom, and a private side entrance, the space is ideal for multigenerational living, an au pair suite, extended guests, a home office, or potential rental income. Outside, the oversized lot creates a private, park-like retreat with room to breathe. Mature trees, an established rose garden, and a variety of flowering plants provide a peaceful backdrop, all supported by an extensive irrigation system for easy year-round maintenance. A two-car garage offers ample parking, storage, and convenience. Homes showcasing this much flexibility, outdoor space, and future potential in such a convenient location rarely come to market. Situated near Highways 580 and 13, BART, and major AC Transit bus lines, this neighborhood provides easy access to Downtown Oakland, Berkeley, San Francisco, and the greater Bay Area. It's a home with the space to grow, the flexibility to adapt, and a setting you'll enjoy for years to come.
