🏡 The Space

Step inside to a spacious open-concept living area filled with natural light and modern touches.

Relax in the separate living room with the plush sofa and two beautiful chairs, and stream your favorite shows on the 75-inch Smart TV.

Gather around the dining table for a shared banquet meal with a convenient lazy Susan. Both the living room and the dining room are their own distinct spaces, with separating double doors should you choose to have privacy or ambiance separation.

The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need — cookware, utensils, a coffee maker, and more — to feel right at home. It features a large kitchen island with plenty of space for meal preparation.

🛏 Master Bedroom #1 (Ground Floor): King bed, entrance wardrobe room, TV, and private ensuite bathroom, filled with natural light and shades, with private double doors leading directly to the backyard patio.

Next to the kitchen is the laundry room (in-unit washer & dryer for your convenience) and the guest half bathroom.

Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms await:

🛏 Master Bedroom #2: King bed, 2 closets, TV, ensuite double-sink bathroom, and its own private balcony overlooking the backyard patio with views of Lake Merritt.

🛏 Front Bedroom (Bedroom #3): King bed, Smart TV, and deep closet space. In November 2026 we installed new dual-pane windows in this upper, street-facing bedroom to help reduce street noise and improve insulation and natural light. The home is still in an urban neighborhood, and complimentary earplugs are available for light sleepers.

🛏 Middle Bedroom (Bedroom #4): Two beds (1 Twin and 1 Full size), Smart TV, and large closet space.

A comfortable dedicated workspace is also set up for those needing to focus on remote work.

A double-sink bathroom with a walk-in shower serves the Front and Middle bedrooms. All bathrooms are stocked with fresh towels, toiletries, and hair dryers.

🌳 Outdoor, Yoga/Gym Carriage House & Amenities

Private backyard patio for morning coffee or evening relaxation, featuring an outdoor dining table with bench seating for 6 people and a large Sunbrella umbrella.

The finished carriage house in the backyard is open to guests as a dedicated yoga and gym area (photos coming shortly).

1 Gbps high-speed Mesh WiFi throughout for uninterrupted connectivity.

2-zone central heating for upstairs and downstairs. No A/C.

Guests have full access to the main home, backyard patio, and finished backyard carriage house (dedicated yoga and gym area), except for the attic and under-house storage. Self check-in is available via keypad smart lock.

Guests will enjoy full privacy and independence during their stay, with easy self check-in and check-out. I’m always available by phone or message if you need help, local tips, or quick assistance—whether it’s restaurant recommendations or troubleshooting during your stay. My goal is to ensure a smooth, comfortable, and worry-free experience from check-in to check-out.

Just steps from Lake Merritt—Oakland’s scenic 155-acre tidal lagoon and the nation’s first official wildlife refuge. Stroll, jog, or bike the popular 3.4-mile paved path that circles the lake, perfect for birdwatching (herons, egrets, pelicans), picnics, or sunset views. The Necklace of Lights adds evening magic.
Walk to cafés, shops, restaurants, and the lively Grand Lake Farmers Market. Groceries, parks, and everyday amenities are close by in this highly walkable neighborhood. Lake Merritt BART is nearby for quick trips to downtown Oakland, San Francisco, and beyond, with easy freeway access as well.

Getting around
Walkability: very walkable for lakeside recreation, shops and dining on Grand/Lakeshore. Public transit: multiple AC Transit bus lines run on nearby Grand, Lakeshore and Broadway; primary BART stations serving the area are 19th St/Oakland and Lake Merritt (roughly 1–2 miles away) — buses or a 20–40 minute walk link to BART. Regional connections: BART connects to San Francisco, the East Bay, and the Oakland Coliseum (Amtrak/AC Transit connections) and links to SFO via transfers. Airports: Oakland International Airport (OAK) is the closest; San Francisco International (SFO) reachable by BART + transfer. Rideshare/taxis: widely available; street parking is metered and permit/residential zones may apply — expect limited free curb parking near the lake during peak times. Bike: bike lanes on nearby streets and the Lake Merritt loop are popular for cycling.

This home is located in an urban neighborhood, so guests may hear normal city noise.
Parking: Sidewalk/apron parking in front of the property for one small vehicle (requires careful parking), plus free street parking nearby (generally along Lakeshore Avenue behind the property).
In November 2026 we installed new dual-pane windows in the upper street-facing bedroom to help reduce street noise and improve insulation and natural light. Complimentary earplugs are available for light sleepers.
Exterior security cameras are installed around the outside of the property for the safety of our guests and the home. There are no cameras inside the house or in any private areas.
No parties or events are permitted without advanced approval. Please respect quiet hours and our neighbors.
Only registered guests are allowed on the property unless approved in advance.
Self check-in is available for your convenience.
• Situated in the cool East Bay waterfront/coastal microclimate near Lake Merritt (average summer highs in the low 70s°F), the home is equipped with dual-zone central gas heating and ceiling/portable fans rather than central air conditioning.
