330 Lester Avenue
Oakland, CA 94606

330 Lester Avenue is located in Oakland’s desirable Cleveland Heights neighborhood, just 3 blocks from the beautiful Lake Merritt and a little over a mile to Grand and Lakeshore Avenue. Built in 1914, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom classic Craftsman Bungalow has been handsomely updated with newer systems throughout to meet the modern day lifestyle while still holding its architectural charm.

A water conserving, succulent garden welcomes you and is connected to a small front porch where you can sit and relax. Entering into the home you’ll find an open floor plan, large plank, white oak floors throughout and an abundance of windows on all sides filling the house with natural light. There is a large picture window in the living room alongside a stylish but humble fireplace built with Italian Sbiancato tiles and a handmade raw Ash mantle to keep you warm on cool nights. The fireplace is book-ended by built-in shelves for all your treasures or perhaps a record player to enjoy the space. The living room opens to a spacious dining area with bay windows that flows into the handsomely updated kitchen with breakfast bar, white cabinetry, grey and white stone counter tops and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen storage and space are ample making it easy to cook for a big family gathering or entertain.

Tall ceilings, recessed lights and clean lined wood trim and moldings can be found throughout the home. The sunny master suite includes views of the yard and access to the updated bathroom with new floor, shower tiles and a luxurious rain shower. Two additional bedrooms, one with an abundance of windows that could pose as an in-home office are right next to the second bathroom. Walking out into the backyard you will find a tall, well-shaped, fruit bearing lemon tree, lawn, slate tile patio, raised veggie beds and another great space for entertaining! Don’t miss the basement through the yard offering ample bonus/storage space, laundry area, room for canning, a cellar or perhaps a small workshop. An extra-long one car garage could be easily converted into studio space or casita with an area to park one car outside of garage (driveway access is shared with next door neighbor).
