Light-filled living & dining
The living room is bright and inviting, with large picture windows bringing in abundant light and offering a glimpse across the rooftops toward the Oakland skyline. A fireplace anchors the room, surrounded by beautiful tilework that gives a nod to the home’s Spanish Mediterranean roots. It’s an easy place to curl up by the fire with a good book, settle in for movie night or simply enjoy the afternoon light streaming through the windows.
Through an arched doorway, the light-filled dining room offers plenty of space to gather, whether it’s dinner with friends, a holiday around the table or one of those evenings when dinner drifts outside to the garden and no one is quite ready for the night to end.
Thoughtfully Updated Interiors
The updated kitchen balances modern function with plenty of charm. Stone countertops, designer tile and stainless steel appliances, including a Viking range, are complemented by ample cabinetry and a sunny breakfast nook that feels made for morning coffee and slow weekend breakfasts. Tucked away is an original drop-down ironing board, one of those wonderfully unexpected vintage details.
Two comfortable bedrooms offer ample space and plenty of natural light, while the shared bathroom carries the home’s vintage character through with classic tilework, a pedestal sink, built-in storage and a shower over tub. Original built-ins throughout provide useful storage while preserving another piece of the home’s 1930’s character.
Downstairs, the basement provides a dedicated laundry area along with plenty of extra storage space.

Location
A Garden Retreat
Step outside, where a garden studio adds another layer of flexibility to the home. Create a quiet home office, art studio, workout room or simply a space of your own away from the main house.
The backyard unfolds into a collection of spaces to enjoy. A brick pathway winds through a lush, drought-tolerant garden filled with echinacea, iris, ornamental plantings and an established fig tree, while a dedicated garden bed adds to the private retreat, with hummingbirds as frequent visitors.
A small deck beneath the pergola creates an inviting spot to bring out a good book, enjoy an afternoon glass of wine or spend a quiet evening outdoors. And when it’s time to truly unwind, slip into the saltwater hot tub and relax after a long day.
Original Charm, Refreshed
A detached one-car garage provides additional parking and storage, while fresh interior and exterior paint and new lighting give the home a refreshed feel without taking away from the original details that make it special.
Full of character and rich with 1930’s charm, this is a home where thoughtful updates and original architectural details come together beautifully.
