567 Oakland Avenue, Unit 305Oakland, CA 94611Price: $299,000

Wake up above it all. Unit #305 is the building's premier residence - a top-floor, end-position condo with no unit above and no shared walls on either side, delivering a level of quiet and privacy that condos rarely offer. Step onto your private balcony and take in sweeping San Francisco skyline views over the rooftops of Grand Lake - your morning coffee has a permanent view upgrade. Inside, the unit has been thoughtfully updated: a modern kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and new cabinetry with open shelving anchors one end, while the open living and dining area flows naturally to the balcony. The bathroom features designer Cle tile and a newer vanity. Double-pane windows, newer flooring throughout, and updated light fixtures complete the picture. A bonus flex space off the bedroom offers genuine versatility - dedicated home office, creative studio, reading room, or extra storage. Double-door closets provide ample wardrobe capacity. The unit is positioned close to the elevator for effortless daily access and includes a coveted secure garage parking space. Beyond your front door, Oakland's Grand Lake neighborhood delivers everything: Lake Merritt's 155-acre waterfront park and walking paths, the iconic Grand Lake Theater, a weekly Saturday farmers market, Whole Foods, Piedmont Avenue shopping, and some of the East Bay's best dining - all within comfortable walking distance. Owner-occupant buyers only - HOA requires two-year owner-occupancy period prior to any rental.
