East Bay Occidental

DETAILS | You can have it all. Right here in North Oakland, brought to you by Wilson Associates. This fantastic project from the seasoned Wilson team skillfully transformed a tired 1915 bungalow into the perfect home. It’s now a craftsman-inspired brown shingle fit for modern urban dwellers seeking space and style. A bright and airy 3BR/2BA home with a smart 1BR/1BA ADU below and an additional room with its own entrance and 1/2 bath ideal for home office or studio and a sunlit landscaped backyard. This roof-to-foundation green renovation spared no expense – all systems and finishes are brand new. New kitchens and bathrooms with quartz counters, Heath tile, and custom cabinetry. New hardwood floors throughout. All new windows. New appliances. New tankless water heater for each unit. New landscaping and Indonesian hardwood deck and stairs. Low VOC adhesives and paint. Photovoltaic ready.

For something to be more than the sum of its parts, though, it needs style. Finesse. 5841 Occidental has both, of course, and it’s the sophisticated flow and attention to detail coupled with its impressive list of features that take the house to the next level.

A most warm and welcoming entry with terrific custom-built bench is the ideal spot to kick off your boots upon your return from the nearby South Berkeley Farmers market and your lunch at the beloved Lois the Pie Queen. Walk to Sweet Adeline bakeshop, Sideshow Kitchen, the indispensable Ace Ellis Hardware, and the beautiful Golden Gate Branch Library. Just under a mile to Ashby BART, just over a mile and a half to Rockridge BART and Market Hall.

Occidental is a cul-de-sac lined with handsome homes. With no thru traffic, this special spot is quiet and friendly. It’s a great central location just minutes from everything, positioning you for the good life in the sunny East Bay. See, you can have it all.
