Thoughtfully reimagined in Oakland's coveted Havenscourt neighborhood, this charming two-bedroom, one-bath Craftsman blends timeless architectural character with contemporary updates, generous living spaces, and an inviting outdoor setting. A horizontal redwood fence introduces the property, while a welcoming front porch sets the tone. Inside, the spacious living room features engineered hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, custom window shutters, and a refreshed wood-burning fireplace framed by built-in shelving. The flowing floor plan connects to the dining room, where a built-in buffet, modern chandelier, and garden-facing windows create an inviting setting for everyday living. The expansive, light-filled kitchen offers excellent space, featuring a French-door refrigerator with ice maker, gas range, range hood, dishwasher, stainless steel sink with chef-style faucet, recessed and pendant lighting, and abundant storage. A breakfast nook and large picture window overlooking the backyard make this a welcoming space, while direct access to a sunny rear deck connects the indoors to the outdoors. Two comfortable bedrooms offer generous closet space, updated lighting, and garden outlooks. A refreshed bathroom with a shower-over-tub combination and hallway linen storage completes the interior. Newer windows throughout further enhance the home's bright atmosphere. Beyond the interior, the landscaped backyard unfolds as a private garden retreat, with natural stone pavers, lush greenery, bamboo planters, and fruit trees. The personal orchard features seven varieties of fruit trees, including Gala apple, Gold Kist apricot, Montmorency cherry, Nazemetz pineapple guava, blood orange, dwarf peach, and a mature lemon tree. Shade-producing greenery, thoughtfully arranged planters, and drip irrigation complete the setting. Ideal for outdoor dining, barbecues, or enjoying the California sunshine, the backyard also features a detached structure with double glass doors, lighting, and electrical service, offering flexible possibilities for creative pursuits, exercise, hobbies, or storage. A private gated side entrance provides convenient backyard access, while an extended driveway offers generous off-street parking. Combining classic Craftsman charm, modern conveniences, generous living spaces, and a beautifully cultivated outdoor retreat, this refreshed Havenscourt residence offers comfortable California living with a personal orchard just beyond the back door.
