Reflecting the grandeur and colorful history of old West Oakland, this Colonial Revival, also known as the Wansner (Wilhelm) house, is sited on an exceptional gated corner lot in the Oak Center Historic District. Boasting period details including cove ceilings, decorative brick fire place in the living room, built in display case and hardwood floors, the modern updated kitchen, and bathrooms provide for contemporary comforts. Externally, the expansive deck with retractable canopies provide for intimate private affairs or open air events. As well, it serves as a great viewing venue for local events. Making your way from the deck to the exquisite level side yard featuring a lovely garden, requires a simple stroll along the cobble stone paved path adjacent to the newer constructed expansive 2 car garage. Close to BART, FWY access, transportation, Uptown, Downtown, Fox Theater, De Fremery Park, public shared bikes and restaurants!
