Property Tour

Bored with Boring Condos?

 This top-floor, corner-unit stunner is anything but. Set back from the street for peace and privacy, this 2-bed, 2-bath offers 1,038 sq. ft. of stylish living space plus a rare, recently upgraded private covered 120 sq. ft. balcony, providing indoor/outdoor space that's ideal for morning coffee, an afternoon meditation, or al fresco cocktails with friends.

Both beautiful and functional, the professionally designed kitchen and bathrooms are completely new—no outdated cabinets or funky ‘70s relics here. The kitchen features brand-new, high-end appliances (including a sleek Samsung induction range), a gorgeous Heath tile backsplash, custom floating shelving, and all new lighting. The bathrooms? Newly renovated with Fireclay tile, chic West Elm vanities, Kohler toilets, and much more.

Extras? Deeded gated parking, extra storage, building security cameras, and an A+ location in the heart of Oakland. Lake Merritt, Parks and Playgrounds, Grand Ave., Whole Foods & Trader Joes, Uptown, BART, an express bus to SF, highways, and top-tier dining, shopping, and culture are all just steps away—easy access to all the best of the Bay Area.

Neighborhood

Adams Point, considered the “Jewel of Oakland," is located near the northern shore of Lake Merritt. The neighborhood is tucked between the Uptown Oakland and Grand Lake neighborhoods and if you’re looking for gorgeous lake views from home, The Bellevue-Staten and the elaborate, Beaux Arts-styled Regillus buildings are ideal for you. You can also find a variety of single-family homes and cozy condominiums in Adams Point, making it one of the more diverse real estate areas in Oakland.

There is more to Lake Merritt than a beautiful body of water. Adams Point residents can easily access a few of the area’s popular public parks. Nearby Lakeside Park includes Children’s Fairyland, a storybook theme park that has delighted generations of kids and even served as a model for Disneyland Park. The three-mile pathway around the lake hosts hundreds of runners and walkers each day.

If you enjoy exploring a vast array of plant life, the Gardens at Lake Merritt are a must-see. Stroll through the peaceful Bonsai and Japanese Gardens, or transport yourself to a tropical paradise in the Palm Garden. 

Just south of the Gardens is where you will find the Lake Merritt Boating Center, which offers sailing classes, as well as rents kayaks canoes, and sailboats. If you have your own boat or kayak, you can use it on Lake Merritt for a small fee. 

Adams Point is a short stroll from the 19th Street Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station, making it a great neighborhood for commuters. Residents from Adams Point can ride to Google Headquarters in less than 40 minutes, and to the Financial District in less than 30. Additionally, the neighborhood’s close proximity to Interstate 580 makes it easy to travel to the Oakland Zoo, or up to the Golden Gate Fields in Northwest Berkeley.

Living in Adams Point is great for people who love live entertainment, dinner & a movie, or a delicious meal. Paramount Theatre is less than one mile from Adams Point, and showcases a variety of live acts including stand-up comedy shows, concerts, and performing arts. About two blocks south, you will find the historic Fox Theater, which seats up to 2,800 people and features similar shows.
