About this property

Cozy 1BR • Rainfall Shower • Fireplace • Parking

A private 1-bedroom in a gated Oakland duplex with on-site driveway parking. Unwind by the electric fireplace, refresh in the rainfall shower, and cook in the full kitchen with a gas range. Minutes from Lake Merritt, Jack London Square, and Downtown, with about 15 minutes to San Francisco.

This private 1-bedroom is a calm home base in Oakland. High ceilings and clean tile floors keep the space open and easy to care for, and well-insulated walls make it quiet enough for restful sleep or remote work. The bedroom`s electric fireplace doubles as a heater for cozy evenings, and the queen bed comes with a tufted headboard and open shelving.

The kitchen has a gas range, full-size fridge, microwave, and a breakfast bar, plus a dining nook with a bold accent wall and a coffee station for your morning brew. The bathroom has both a rainfall and a handheld shower (shower only, no tub), with a hair dryer and fresh towels provided. Outside, the shared patio has string lights and shaded seating, surrounded by greenery. A shared washer and dryer is available for stays of 5 nights or more.

The unit sits in a gated duplex. You`ll enter through a shared community gate, and the code is sent before check-in. A walkway leads from the gate to your private unit, which is entirely yours. The gate, driveway parking, and patio are shared. The owner lives in the separate unit upstairs and respects your privacy.

Check-in is self-service, so you can arrive on your own schedule. I`m available anytime through the app and respond quickly to questions.

Located between the 580 and 880 freeways, the neighborhood makes it easy to explore Oakland and the wider Bay Area. International Boulevard is lined with taquerias, bakeries, and Caribbean spots, and the Fruitvale Village Farmers` Market is a weekend favorite. Lake Merritt is close by for an evening walk under the lights, and Jack London Square offers waterfront dining minutes away. Getting around: 8 minutes to Jack London Square, 10 minutes to Downtown Oakland and Chinatown, 10 minutes to Fruitvale BART, and about 15 minutes to San Francisco, traffic permitting.

Like most homes in the Bay Area, the unit doesn`t have air conditioning. Oakland`s mild climate keeps it comfortable most of the year. Please no smoking, pets, or parties.

Outstanding Oakland Spot

Super convenient location close to family we were visiting. Karen was one of the friendliest, most delightful hosts I've ever stayed with in many, many years as a user of all the "BnB" platforms. Highly recommended and would book again!

I had a very nice and relaxing stay with my partner at Karen's home in Oakland. The interior of the house was very welcoming and had really nice amenities including snack bar, coffee bar, full kitchen and dining room. The bed was super comfy and loved the entire layout of the house. The bathroom was very nice clean and organized. Will definitely be back for another stay!

This place was perfect for my business stay. The amenities including the kitchen, WiFi and shower made me feel at home. It was a great space to work, do homework and relax. I was able to cook like I do at home as it was close to Trader Joe’s. I found many great coffee shops and truly appreciated being able to park in the driveway. I felt safe behind the locked gate and the automatic lighting added an additional safety element. The host was very responsive when I had a question. I look forward to staying again!

This was my second time staying here and the next time I’m in town for work I will book again. The location is perfect with coffee and groceries close. The home itself is comfortable and has everything needed including a full fridge and stove to cook as well a coffee maker for my early morning at home coffee needs. The shower and fire place are my favorite amenities as well as the private and secure entrance. It’s well lighted at the gate and door which I greatly appreciate. I cannot say enough great things about it! Thank you!!

Great communication

Very comfortable, extremely clean, great amenities like a full sized fridge and gas stove. We appreciated the bed with a real mattress, not a memory-foam cheap mattress that can be uncomfortable. The host was very responsive. The only issue was there's not much street parking, but that may not be a problem a lot of the time. We parked in the driveway and had to shuffle cars a couple times. Overall it's a GREAT place to stay! Thank you to a great host!

Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber und modern eingerichtet. Das Bett ist sehr bequem und mit ausreichend sauberen Bettzeug ausgestattet. Die Küchenzeile ist mit einem grossen tiefen Spülbecken, einschließlich einer praktischen Handbrause, ausgestattet. Die Ausstattung ist ausreichend vorhanden. Lediglich die vorhandenen angeschmorten Kochlöffel sowie Pfannenheber waren nicht nutzbar und sollten ausgetauscht werden. Der fehlende Toaster wurde auf Wunsch sofort bereitgestellt. Der übergroße Kühlschrank bietet ausreichend Platz. Das Bad, einschließlich WC, ist ausreichend groß mit einer Dusch-/Badewanne ausgestattet. Die Überkopfbrause läßt sich nicht unabhängig von/mit der Handbrause nutzen. Im Bereich vom Einstieg in die Dusch-/Badewanne tritt nach jedem Duschvorgang Wasser auf den Boden aus. Außerdem ist es ratsam nur bei Tageslicht zu duschen, da der Bewegungsmelder vom Lichtschalter an der Tür nicht den Duschbereich erfasst! Die sehr hilfsbereite Vermieterin wurde sowohl über den Wasseraustritt als auch über die eingeschränkte Lichtschaltung beim Duschen informiert.
