Oakland | $865,000

A 1905 Queen Anne Revival-style house in North Oakland

This three-bedroom, three-bath house is in North Oakland, less than a mile from the waterfront shopping centers of Emeryville and less than two miles from the south side of Berkeley, Calif. A public library, a cocktail bar and an Ethiopian restaurant are all within a half mile, as is Temescal Creek Park. An outpost of the Berkeley Bowl market is five minutes away by car, and the campus of the University of California, Berkeley is 15 minutes away.

The Emeryville Amtrak station is within a five-minute drive, and both the MacArthur and Rockridge BART stations are 10 minutes away. Downtown Oakland is a 20-minute ride via public transit.

Size: 1,931 square feet

Price per square foot: $448

Indoors: The home’s exterior, painted blue and white, retains much of its original wood trim. Steps running alongside a landscaped yard lead up to the covered entryway. The living room has high ceilings and a bay window overlooking the street. Hardwood floors continue into a sunny dining nook facing the kitchen, which has stainless steel appliances and a white tile backsplash.

A hallway links this part of the house to the rear sitting room, where a set of doors with glass panels face the deck. Two bedrooms are off the hall, as are two bathrooms, each with a combined tub and shower and a floating vanity.

From the center of the house, a spiral staircase leads down to the lower level, configured as a primary suite. The bedroom has space for a king-size bed and a desk, plus direct access to a stone patio outside. The adjoining space could be used as an office, a nursery or a walk-in closet. The bathroom has a walk-in shower and a porcelain pedestal sink with chrome hardware. This level also holds a storage area with a side-by-side washer and dryer.

Outdoor space: Outdoor stairs lead from the sitting room on the main level to one of two decks, this one framed by a wood fence and mature hedges. Across a grassy lawn is a second deck, this one shaded by a maple tree. A patio around the corner, landscaped with drought-tolerant plants, has a fire pit. The detached garage holds two cars.
