Welcome to 1538 16th Avenue, a classic Oakland home offering character, space, and an opportunity to make it your own. High ceilings, natural light, and a spacious floor plan provide a great foundation for someone looking to enhance the home's original charm while adding their own personal style and modern touches. Situated on a shorter stretch of 16th Avenue directly across from the historic St. Anthony campus and church, the home enjoys a more open streetscape along with generous street parking directly in front. The garage and expansive lower-level space provide added flexibility for storage, hobbies, a workshop, or future possibilities (buyer to investigate). Conveniently located near Lake Merritt, parks, shopping, dining, public transportation, and major commuter routes, this property presents a unique opportunity to bring new life to a classic Oakland residence.
