5437 El Camile Ave, Oakland CA

This 1925 split-level bungalow is a delight in so many ways. Lovingly remodeled by the owners & boldly repainted to highlight its Craftsman details, its handsome street presence stands out among many sweet houses on the block. A large maple tree shades the front lawn, which is bordered with thoughtful landscaping of succulents & grasses. Inside, original details - a beveled glass front door, built-in cabinetry, warm hardwood floors -mesh easily with modern upgrades. The living room is luminous & welcoming- it leads easily into the open layout of the dining room and kitchen. The kitchen is classic & chic, with a herringbone subway tile above the stove, quartz counters, custom cabinets, open shelving, a farmhouse sink & brass hardware & fixtures. Three generous bedrooms & an updated, spa like bathroom are located beyond the public spaces. Below is a large laundry area that leads out to a big backyard, quiet & private - the perfect spot to enjoy the fabulous microclimate of Maxwell Park.
