Property Description

Welcome to 4272 Howe Street, an irresistible Victorian-era cottage tucked into Oakland's beloved Piedmont Avenue neighborhood. Built in 1895, this 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers 1,206 square feet of living space/, blending distinctive period character with thoughtful modern updates. The home's high-pitched gable, triple-lap siding, and double-peaked dormer give it unmistakable curb appeal, while inside, an open floor plan creates an easy flow for everyday living and entertaining. The updated kitchen features newer appliances, while newer flooring, refreshed bathrooms, and updated light fixtures give the home a fresh, modern feel. Out back, a large landscaped yard feels like a true urban oasis, with a deck for outdoor dining and a separate patio area for lounging and relaxing. Upstairs, a balcony off the bathroom offers an unexpected spot to take in views of the city and surrounding hills. A partially finished basement provides laundry facilities, a utility sink, and valuable additional storage, while off-street parking adds everyday convenience. And then there's the location. Piedmont Avenue is just behind you, putting neighborhood favorites like Fenton's, Koraa, Spectator Books, Moss and Spade, cafés, restaurants, shops, and everyday conveniences within easy reach. Whether you're heading out to explore the neighborhood or settling into your own backyard retreat, 4272 Howe Street offers the best of both worlds. With history and character, this adorable home blends old and new and is sure to bring more joy into your life.
