Bright 2BR in Charming Fourplex Near Lake Merritt & Grand Ave
Welcome to 465 Elwood Avenue, a classic 1920s fourplex on a quiet, tree-lined street just minutes from Lake Merritt and Grand Avenue. This sunny 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment blends vintage charm with modern comfort in one of Oakland's most desirable, walkable neighborhoods.
Inside, you'll find well-proportioned rooms, beautiful wood floors, and great natural light throughout the day. The living area flows into an eat-in kitchen, and both bedrooms offer good closet space and flexibility for a home office, guest room, or creative studio. Being in a small, well-kept building means more privacy and a quieter feel than a large complex.
Step outside and you're moments from neighborhood cafes, restaurants, and everyday conveniences along Grand and Lake Park, as well as the trails and green space around Lake Merritt. Quick freeway and transit access makes commuting to downtown Oakland, Berkeley, or San Francisco straightforward while still letting you come home to a residential, hillside neighborhood.
