Santa Fe

Welcome to your little slice of Oakland heaven, where a secret oasis awaits behind a charming wooden gate. This 1925 Craftsman bungalow represents a harmonious blend of vintage charm and thoughtful modern updates, creating a move-in ready sanctuary that still offers creative possibilities for your personal touch.

As you approach along the freshly landscaped front yard, the sunny porch beckons you home. Step inside to discover a 2bd/1ba vintage beauty where original character and contemporary comfort blend seamlessly together.
The heart of this home is undoubtedly the spacious living room that invites family and friends to gather and share the day's events. The room is anchored by a decorative artisan fireplace and original built-ins, providing a special place to highlight your favorite books and objects of desire.  Natural light spills through large windows, illuminating the beautifully refinished hardwood floors that showcase their timeless beauty. The elegant dining room, perfect for both everyday meals and special gatherings, features additional vintage built-in cabinets that honor the home's Craftsman heritage.

The kitchen tells a story of thoughtful renovation, where modern functionality meets period-appropriate design. New hardwood flooring creates a seamless transition from the living spaces, while sleek quartz countertops provide an elegant workspace. Every detail has been carefully considered—from freshly painted cabinets adorned with brushed gold pulls to the new gas range that awaits your culinary adventures. Contemporary lighting fixtures cast a warm glow that complements the home's vintage aesthetic. The adjoining breakfast nook offers a casual dining alternative with continued hardwood flooring extending into the nearby laundry room.

Each bedroom features large windows that welcome abundant natural light, creating bright, airy spaces for rest and relaxation. The freshly painted interior throughout provides a clean canvas for your personal style and decor.

Step through the back door and discover a true urban retreat—a newly designed backyard with lush lawn that expands your living space into the outdoors. New landscaping and thoughtful outdoor design create a setting for gardening, entertaining, or simply unwinding after a long day. This generous outdoor space occupies a portion of the 4,300 square foot lot, providing ample room for future expansion possibilities.
One of the property's most versatile features is the beautifully refreshed detached bonus structure. This flexible space offers a multitude of possibilities for the buyer to investigate. Home office, atelier, personal gym, future ADU? Let your imagination be your guide...

Beyond the aesthetic updates, this home delivers substantial practical improvements that new homeowners will appreciate. Owned solar panels reduce utility costs while supporting sustainable living. A newer roof and furnace,  seismic upgrades, and electrical improvements take care of the essential systems, providing peace of mind for years to come.

Located just one block from the Transbay bus route to San Francisco, this special Santa Fe neighborhood gem combines urban convenience with residential tranquility. This is more than just a starter home—it's a foundation for building your Oakland life, where vintage craftsmanship meets contemporary needs in perfect balance.

about this

Neighborhood

The urban-suburban neighborhood of Bushrod is just 3-blocks wide, and is known as a “micro-hood." Because of its proximity to BART stations and major freeways, Bushrod is favored by many (including the growing population of young professionals). Plus, the neighborhood is just 25 minutes from downtown San Francisco. 

Located in Alameda County in the City of Oakland, Bushrod is made up of mostly single-family homes ranging from $900,000 to $2 million. The homes offer diversity, as they vary in architectural styles. 

Bushrod is also popular amongst fitness enthusiasts. There is a wide range of exercise opportunities from workouts in the park to indoor pilates studios. At the center of Bushrod is the newly renovated Bushrod Recreation Center. The center features an indoor gym, baseball and softball fields, weight rooms, a children's play structure, and more. The center even offers a refurbished education lab for kids. 

Also referred to as a "walker's paradise," Bushrod residents have quick access to all the shops and eateries down College Avenue. They are just minutes away from neighborhood favorites like Café Colucci and Nomad Cafe. The homes in Bushrod are also close to Safeway and Whole Foods Market.
