3900 Santa Rita Street # Top Floor, Oakland, CA 94601

Open Wednesday, 5/3/2017 at 6pm for viewing! Rare opportunity to live in a gorgeous, historic 100-year old Queen Anne/Colonial Revival Victorian on a hill overlooking the Bay. This 100-year old building is a historically-rated building by the City of Oakland. This four-unit building feels more like a home than an apartment building. Enjoy bay views and bay breezes in this newly refurbished studio flat. It has lots of modern conveniences, but all are in keeping with the period, including newly refinished hardwood floors, historic paint colors throughout, Restoration Hardware fixtures, high ceilings, and a huge community back-yard with a deck and lots of opportunities for gardening and hanging out. Newly-refinished hardwood floors, fresh, designer paint. Gas stove and full-sized refrigerator and in unit laundry included. Off-street parking is provided behind a lockable gate. We are looking for residents who will fall in love with the uniqueness of the building as much as we have. It was once the home to the Robert A. Borland family, a plasterer from Scotland who lived there for many years with his 6 children and his wife, Agnes. Members of the Borland family called the building ?home? well until the 1940?s when it was then subdivided into a 40 unit building. The ceiling on the main floor of the house is stunningly beautiful and the home itself was built by Mr. Borland for his family so it is built like a fortress. Email us back with any questions or call owner Greg at (510) 472-4770 to arrange a showing. Owner pays trash, recycling, water, and landscape maintenance.
