House buy in West Oakland California

The Blu Cap Lofts is a historic 1920's dry goods warehouse that was converted into 11 live/work units in 2015. Loft #8, one of the largest in the building, was originally designed to be the developer's unit and includes an array of upgraded finishes and a gated parking space. Spread over two levels, the floor plan provides tremendous flexibility & great separation of space. The main level features a showcase kitchen with Thermador range, dishwasher & built-in espresso machine, 2 Liebherr refrigerators, microwave, wine chiller and large central island. There is a shelving-lined walk-in pantry, full bathroom, laundry area with side-by-side Whirlpool washer & dryer and a large living area with double height ceilings. The upper level wows with the original architectural details like exposed brick, solid timber trusses, large skylight and aged oak flooring. There is an enclosed bedroom with barn doors and two additional open areas that can be used for living, sleeping or playing (one room used to house a billiard table). There is a modern bathroom with stall shower and double vanities. The property receives a WalkScore of 86 & a BikeScore of 90. Across the street are two of Oakland's best kept secrets - Soba Ichi's handspun soba noodles and June's Pizza which uses wood-fired ovens and locally sourced ingredients. The loft is also located near destinations like Ghost Town Brewing (1 block), Starline Social Club, Horn Barbecue, Hopscotch and Donut Savant. The Bay Bridge Toll Plaza is 2.3 miles away and three BART stations are nearby including West Oakland which is just one stop to SF's Embarcadero Station. The loft is a 4-minute walk to the NL bus stop on West Grand with service to SF's Salesforce Transit Center in 16 minutes. Updated On: January, 11 2022 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
