Offered for sale for the first time in 54 years, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,616 square feet of inviting living space, thoughtful updates, and unmistakable pride of ownership. Step inside to a spacious living room highlighted by beautifully refinished oak floors and an oversized picture window that fills the space with natural light. The refreshed kitchen features new paint, a new cooktop, new flooring, and updated fixtures, creating a bright and welcoming place to cook and gather.

The lower level adds exceptional versatility with a generous family room featuring a built-in wine bar, a third bedroom, and a second full bathroom. Whether used for guests, a home office, recreation, or additional living space, this level offers flexibility that is increasingly hard to find. Abundant storage provides even more possibilities for hobbies, organization, or future customization. Fresh interior and exterior paint make this home feel move-in ready. Outside, the fenced backyard creates a peaceful retreat with a tranquil creek along the rear of the property. Mature orange and lemon trees offer fresh citrus right at home, while the front patio provides another relaxing outdoor space to enjoy. Additional highlights include a one-car garage with interior access and secure, low-maintenance front-yard fencing. Convenient access to Highways 580, 880, and 13, along with nearby BART, makes commuting throughout Oakland, San Francisco, and the greater Bay Area convenient. With character, flexible living space, thoughtful improvements, a serene creekside setting, and more than five decades of cherished ownership, 6138 Oakdale Avenue is a special Oakland home that deserves to be seen.
