Welcome Home to 974 42nd Street, a spectacular, Cape Cod inspired wood shingled craftsman home in Oakland’s highly desirable NOBE district! Offering the finest of finishes and integrated custom designed features for an active lifestyle. This elegant and spacious home provides the discerning buyer with a rare opportunity to purchase a wonderfully restored home, complete with all modern amenities and systems. The craftsman theme is evident with the custom star accents on the stair balusters and dining room fireplace surround with built-in cabinetry. This four bedroom, three bath home is over 2,200 square feet of well thought out and designed living space. As you enter the home, passing through the doorway with stained glass window, you immediately notice the gorgeous hardwood floors and custom crown molding, trim and mill work. The gorgeous formal living room also boasts views of Downtown Oakland. The kitchen provides fine culinary appliances including a Blue Star stainless steel, six burner range, an ultra-quiet dishwasher and a French door refrigerator completes the appliance package. The custom cabinets with special “washed” finish are reminiscent of East Coast homes, framed with beautiful quartz counters, and glass doors leading to a wonderful deck for al-fresco dining. This level also includes a guest bedroom. Down the elegant staircase is the lavish master suite with a luxurious spa-like bath. The custom tile, lovely soaking tub, separate shower and commode room make this a first-class master suite. Two additional bedrooms, a den/working area, laundry facilities, and additional storage are also on this floor. As you explore the grounds, the spaciousness of the rear yard becomes evident. Offering a casita, a garage, and a custom trellis over the patio, the yard immediately demonstrates the wonderful opportunities for entertaining on the large patio area, as well as space for a separate office, studio or workshop. Neighborhood: NOBE is located so wonderfully close to everything we love about the North Oakland, Berkeley and Emeryville area, and offers great proximity to San Francisco and the Bay Area. With fantastic new restaurants within walking distance, from Propaganda on 40th and Adeline, Arizmendi on San Pablo, and Salispuedes on 42nd, there are great dining choices within minutes of your front door. The BART station is within minutes by bike or car, at 40th and MLK. The neighborhood park was recently renovated and is a delight!
