Welcome to 4272 Howe Street, an irresistible Victorian-era cottage tucked into Oakland’s beloved Piedmont Avenue neighborhood. Built in 1895, this 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers 1,206 square feet of living space/, blending distinctive period character with thoughtful modern updates. The home’s high-pitched gable, triple-lap siding, and double-peaked dormer give it unmistakable curb appeal, while inside, an open floor plan creates an easy flow for everyday living and entertaining. The updated kitchen features newer appliances, while newer flooring, refreshed bathrooms, and updated light fixtures give the home a fresh, modern feel. Out back, a large landscaped yard feels like a true urban oasis, with a deck for outdoor dining and a separate patio area for lounging and relaxing.
