2129 26th Avenue

Calling all creators, visionaries, and savvy buyers! For the first time in 60 years, this cherished 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom East Oakland gem has hit the market, ready for its next generation. Tucked into the vibrant, culturally rich Fruitvale/San Antonio district, this property represents the ultimate opportunity to bring your contractor, customize your finishes, and capture instant sweat equity. While public records show approximately 1,429 sq. ft., the massive basement area expands the usable layout closer to a generous 1,800 sq. ft. The main floor features incredible mid-century character, highlighted by a unique rounded kitchen with a built-in China cabinet and a nostalgic vintage laundry chute. Downstairs, the expansive lower level serves as a complete blank slate perfect for a premium workshop, creative studio, or a future au-pair unit/ADU. Ideally located just minutes from the renowned Fruitvale Transit Village, regional BART access, local artisan markets, and major commuter freeways, this home perfectly pairs classic character with incredible upside. Properties with this much history, space, and neighborhood potential do not stay available for long. Bring your builder, your design toolkit, and your vision!
