Santa Fe
A Chic, Updated Urban Oasis
Nestled in the heart of Santa Fe—one of West Oakland’s oldest and historic neighborhoods—you’ll find 5216 Market Street. In the heart of this vibrant area, you’ll find a tranquil, updated c.1908 Craftsman set behind two stunning redwood trees that flank the front entry.
Step inside and discover a seamless blend of classic Craftsman architecture and modern conveniences. The front living room’s artistic lines calm the mood and set the space, as do the original tiles, built-ins and cozy fireplace. Peek through the large picture window at the front of the home and feel like you’re in a redwood grove.
Two bedrooms both feature original detailing and refinished hardwood floors, with an updated bathroom in between, accessible by the bedrooms and the hallway.
A newer eat-in kitchen layout now showcases its spaciousness and prep-work peninsula. With new stainless appliances and plenty of sunlight, it’s a joy to gather and cook together here! The kitchen opens out to an expanded and recently rebuilt deck, overlooking the home’s… escape: a remarkable garden, featuring hundreds of flowering bulbs, perennials, herbs, a mature olive tree, stone pathways and surprising vignettes of plantings that vary throughout the seasons. From hosting a large gathering to sharing a sunset for two among the flowers , It’s a lovely space for indoor/outdoor entertaining and relaxation.
The partially-finished, ground-level basement is such a find! Seismically retrofit and with roughly the square footage of the main home, possibilities certainly abound here. A laundry area and a half-bath mix with huge open space, fabulous for a workshop, gym, play area, or extensive storage. It’s connected to the attached, 1-car garage, too.
Thoughtful upgrades also include newer windows throughout the home, refinished hardwood floors, an energy-efficient water heater and split-unit air conditioner.
A commuter’s dream, 5216 Market Street is conveniently located to MacArthur BART, Highway 24 and the 580 Freeway, and a stone’s throw to the 88 and F bus lines. Nearby favorites include the Berkeley and Claremont Farmers Markets, Temescal Creek Park, Lois the Pie Queen (for some Southern soul food) and of course, the Mariposa Bakery (for gluten-free delights!)… and all the Bay Area has to offer!

about this
Neighborhood
∎
Santa Fe is a small, historically significant neighborhood in North Oakland, and among the oldest. This residential quarter takes its name from the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe (AT&SF) Railway, which once ran through this neighborhood back in the late 19th century. Though the AT&SF may no longer exist, Santa Fe hasn't lost its access to rapid transit. This diverse, community-oriented neighborhood boasts charming early-20th-century homes set among quiet, tree-lined streets, community gardens and nearby parks.
Known as a "hidden gem" in North Oakland, it is popular with young professionals and families, maintaining a friendly, evolving community, with residents often involved in local improvements. Residents enjoy local, intimate green spots like the Temescal Community Garden and the nearby Bushrod Park, which offers recreational courts and a community center.
Bordered by major streets, it offers easy access to Berkeley, Emeryville, the 580 Freeway and Highway 24, making it a convenient, walkable, bikeable, and commutable location. The Santa Fe neighborhood boasts closeness to both the Berkeley and Claremont Farmers Markets, MacArthur BART, and the 88 and F bus lines, as well as local favorites such as Lois the Pie Queen and the Mariposa Bakery.
