594 Kenmore Ave

Restore and revive a character-rich home in one of Oakland's most beloved neighborhoods. Mere blocks to Lakeshore Avenue and zoned for Crocker Highlands Elementary*, this location is unmatched. Start your day with a treat from Arizmendi, coffee from Philz, or a stroll through the Grand Lake Farmers' Market--unwind with a film at Grand Lake Theater or a visit to Mandana Plaza Park and its sweet neighborhood playground. If you haven't already fallen in love with the location, you'll surely fall in love with the home. Once lovingly called "his villa" by the seller, a cartoonist and prominent figure in San Francisco's underground comic scene, you'll be struck by the vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, beautiful hardwood floors, intricate railings, and Tiffany-style light fixtures. Features include dining room with original built-ins, enclosed sunroom for storage or clever home office, and vintage kitchen with skylights. Separate laundry room with a convenient quarter bath sits just off the kitchen. Two bedrooms share a full bath, and the low-maintenance yard offers an outdoor escape. Rounding out the home is a coveted two-car garage! This is a rare chance to unlock value in one of Oakland's most sought-after neighborhoods. *Buyer to verify school district/availability
