Our beautiful two-story home is a quiet, luxurious respite a few steps away from historic Piedmont Ave in North Oakland. Walk to the hippest spots in Temescal, or just enjoy lounging in sun-drenched comfort (that's what we mostly do :) The space Our beloved home was originally built in 1916 and still has a few original touches like the parquet floors and crown molding. The house has been renovated recently, and has a sunny, cozy feel throughout. Our favorite quality of the house is the plentiful natural light at all times of day. We've decorated it lovingly with art from our travels around the world, and furniture we've been hand-restoring over the years. It's a 2,000 sq ft two-story white stucco with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. BEDROOM LAYOUT: There are three bedrooms upstairs, with a California King bed in the master, a Queen in one guest bedroom, and a Double in the other guest bedroom. They are all on the top floor together, with one bathroom, as well as an office. We also have a large couch in our downstairs TV room that makes for another comfortable sleeping option, if you'd like to use it as an extra room for sleeping. BATHROOM LAYOUT: There is one bathroom on the top floor, and one on the main floor. GARDENS: We have a newly renovated backyard with outdoor seating, a chiminea fireplace, and a table for outdoor dining. It's nice and sunny during the day, so kick back and relax. In the summer, one side of our garden is covered with grapevines (please pick and enjoy to your heart's content). We also have a front porch garden with beautiful succulents and cacti. It's a wonderful place to enjoy your coffee or breakfast in privacy, drenched with the morning sunlight. Other things to note There is a children's choir school right behind our house, so if you're around on a weekday, you may hear them practicing or playing at recess. Also note there is two-hour parking on our immediate street, so make sure you either move your car accordingly, or you can find unlimited street parking just a block away. You are always welcome to park in our driveway!
