Welcome to 869 52nd St., a charming home with a charming yard, located in a vibrant North Oakland neighborhood. As charming as it is, this 2 bd/1 bath home is in need of a little love. It's not really a fixer as someone could move right in. But she does desire an owner who is willing to give her the facelift she deserves. Her colorful exterior paint is good, but the interior needs a fresh coat. She has a freestanding gas fireplace in the living room, which heats the home comfortably. The dining room includes a variety of functional cabinets while the attached kitchen offers plenty of space for a home chef to comfortably cook and entertain guests. Her roof has exceeded its life but there aren't any known leaks, and the attic offers a safe place to store belongings. But her yard is where real dreams lie: with 7446 sqft, the options are endless. There is an outbuilding, an ideal spot for an art studio or home office; many neighbors have ADU's, perhaps you want the same? The garden, with its many fruit trees and wandering pathways, desires to be brought back to life. There used to be a pool, but is now filled in. Maybe an urban farm with chickens or bees? Whatever your dream, this home offers you the opportunity to see it come to life. Minutes to BART, Bay Street & Temescal shops.
