Oakland, California, Alameda County, 94608

Every couple of years an 8,000+ square foot lot like this comes onto the market with its accompanying possibilities for habitable space expansion, recreation, garden and other big ideas. The width of the lot is 55 for first 138' and then narrows to 40' for the last 16'; there are over 100' from the back of the house to the rear boundary. It is situated far enough off the Market Street/Alcatraz arteries for some tranquility; Baker Street serves equally cars, dogs, pedestrians and bike commuters, it's a fun stretch of street. The house is modest with the living, dining room kitchen on one half and two bedrooms and a bath on the other. It has solid, thick 100 year old redwood frame, level oak floors and from kitchen sink window a far away view of the East Bay hills.
