About This Home

Two charming homes, delivered vacant!

Upstairs, step into a beautifully preserved Victorian where soaring ceilings crown an elegant owner's unit — complete with stained glass, hardwood floors, and a retro kitchen full of character.

Downstairs, a fully legal 3-bedroom, 1-bath flat offers an easy, open-concept layout — perfect for a tenant, in-laws, grown kids, or anyone you'd love to have close by. Live upstairs, rent downstairs, and let the income do the heavy lifting on your mortgage.

Step outside and the magic continues: a private, fully fenced garden oasis shaded by fruit trees and anchored by a show-stopping red-leaf plum, a jacuzzi calling your name after a long day, and a storage shed to keep it all tidy. Plus 2+ off-street parking spaces — a rare find in the city.

And the location? You're steps from Emeryville's best shopping and everything the beloved Temescal corridor has to offer.

Explore the Neighborhood

Located just north of the West Oakland area, Longfellow is nestled in between Temescal Creek to the north and 36th Street/Interstate 580 to the south. The Longfellow neighborhood features a variety of real estate architecture and floorplan options, including multi-family investment homes and standalone single family homes. Although this neighborhood is primarily residential, the easy access to highways, a BART Station and bus stations provides plenty of options to explore everything Oakland has to offer.

One of the most unique landmarks of Longfellow is the Oakland Military Academy, which sits at the heart of the neighborhood. This academy provides a seven-year college preparatory program which begins at 6th grade all the way to high school graduation. Since the Oakland Military Academy is not a boarding school, parents who have a strong desire for their kids to attend this amazing charter school will love calling the Longfellow neighborhood home.

North Side Supermarket is one of the few stores within the Longfellow neighborhood, but stands out as an amazing locally-owned grocery shop. Customers love the incredible selection of meat, deli selections, beer, wine, produce, and pantry items. The store also provides household items such as laundry detergent, cleaning products, and a variety of beverages. Whether hosting friends for a cookout, or just need to restock the pantry and fridge, North Side Supermarket has is within easy reach of most Longfellow residents.

Commuters have plenty of reasons to love living in Longfellow. MacArthur Station sits along the eastern border of the neighborhood, and is less than a mile walk from most Longfellow homes. Downtown Oakland is just a 6-minute ride from MacArthur Station, while Google Headquarters is less than 30 minutes away. For those who need to commute north, Downtown Berkley is just a 5-minute train ride, which makes it easy to ride to/from UC Berkeley.

The close proximity to Interstate 580 offers a straightforward drive to the Bay Bridge, and can also be utilized to drive to the Oakland Coliseum.
