Oakland, CA 94609 685 37th Street # 689

Dog-friendly! Bathed in natural light, this 2 bedroom/1 bathroom apartment is on the first floor of a friendly fourplex close to everything you could want. Walk or roll 3 blocks to catch BART at MacArthur Station, or just over a half-mile to dining, brewpubs and cafes in Temescal. Monday blues nights at Eli's Mile High Club nearby will start up your week. If it's Piedmont Avenue you want, it's under a mile away, with the same for Uptown. Don't want to go out to eat? Go gourmet at home in your large, updated eat-in kitchen, with a gas stove, microwave, stainless-steel refrigerator and dishwasher. There's also a front-loading washer and dryer just for your use. Every room was refreshed with designer paint and lighting, gleaming hardwood floors, plus bottom-up/top-down window shades. The bathroom looks fresh with hexagonal tile, and the tub has a custom glass shower door. The tankless on-demand system means you won't run out of hot water. The property is fully fenced, with a shared back yard for gardening, BBQing or bike storage. Street parking is plentiful, or go car-free by using the bikeshare at the end of the block (or BART!). (Off-street parking and storage is in the works.)
