Located in the heart of West Oakland, 1526 Filbert Street offers timeless character, generous space, and thoughtful updates just minutes from downtown Oakland and a quick commute to San Francisco. With convenient access to West Oakland BART Station, Interstate 880, Interstate 580, and the Bay Bridge, this location is ideal for commuters while still enjoying the charm and steady growth of this historic neighborhood known for its tree lined streets and classic architecture.
Step up onto the welcoming front porch and enter the spacious bottom unit, where you are immediately greeted by a large open entry. A generous closet sits to the right, perfect for coats and storage, while fresh paint and beautiful wood flooring extend throughout the home, creating a bright and cohesive atmosphere.
To the left of the entry is the first bedroom, a spacious and inviting room with large windows lining a graceful curved wall that allows natural light to pour in. A ceiling fan provides added comfort, and a large closet offers ample storage, making this room both functional and serene.
As you continue down the hallway, the home opens into a substantial living room on your left. Centered around a charming fireplace that adds warmth and character, this space is filled with natural light from oversized windows and complemented by a ceiling fan. The layout allows for comfortable living and flexible furniture arrangements while maintaining an open and airy feel.
Directly across from the living room is the primary bedroom, equally generous in size and light. The curved wall of windows creates a peaceful retreat, while the ceiling fan enhances comfort. The room flows into a large en suite bathroom featuring a shower over tub with tiled walls and floors, along with a spacious vanity offering excellent storage and counter space.
Just beyond the living room, the kitchen unfolds as a true centerpiece of the home. Fully equipped with stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator, dishwasher, gas stove, and microwave, it combines style and practicality. Rich cherry wood cabinetry provides abundant storage, and expansive counter space makes meal preparation effortless.
On the opposite side of the kitchen is the second full bathroom, finished with tiled floors and a standing shower, ideal for guests or additional household members. At the far end of the kitchen is the third bedroom, complete with large windows, a ceiling fan, and its own closet, offering flexibility as a bedroom, office, or creative space.
Toward the rear of the home you will find a dedicated laundry room with a stacked washer and dryer for everyday convenience. Adjacent to the laundry area is a third full bathroom featuring a tiled standing shower, providing added functionality for a larger household.
From the laundry room, step out into the fully fenced shared backyard. The outdoor space includes a picnic table and open area with wonderful potential for relaxing afternoons, gardening, or simply enjoying fresh air in a private setting.
With its expansive layout, three full bathrooms, updated finishes, and prime West Oakland location near transit and major commuter routes, this residence offers a rare combination of space, comfort, and accessibility in one beautifully maintained home.
