870 43Rd St

Twice the Craftsman charm, endless possibilities! This rare opportunity in Oakland’s vibrant Longfellow neighborhood, 870 & 872 43rd Street features two charming Craftsman-style homes on one lot, offering exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, rental income, or a combination of both. Each residence enjoys its own private entrance, front porch, separately metered utilities, and dedicated laundry, with a lovely shared patio creating an inviting connection between the two homes. Thoughtfully updated while preserving their original character, both homes feature remodeled kitchens and bathrooms complemented by hardwood floors, original built-ins, and period architectural details. The rear home is enhanced by a brand-new mini-split heat pump system providing efficient heating and cooling, plus a spacious private enclosed patio ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, or a year-round container garden. Bonus loft-attic space provides a magical retreat or perfect quiet reading space. Beneath the front home, abundant storage and garage space offer intriguing possibilities for future use or expansion. Set in Longfellow, this property is conveniently located near Temescal, Rockridge, and Emeryville, with easy access to neighborhood shops, restaurants, cafés, and everyday amenities. Nearby MacArthur BART and major commute routes provide convenient connections to Downtown Oakland, San Francisco, UC Berkeley, and destinations throughout the Bay Area. Two distinct homes, inviting outdoor spaces, original Craftsman details, and remarkable versatility make this a truly special Oakland property!
