6801 Chabot Rd Oakland, CA 94618

In 2012, James and Monica were in love, engaged & ready to buy their first house. They were drawn to homes w/ character, vintage charm, & wanted a place that inspired. Looking for a lifestyle home that was close to restaurants & BART, they found it all when they saw 6801 Chabot Rd. Its regal majestic presence & design is rare, & the arched front door welcomes you in. With its sizable living room, platform fireplace & cathedral ceiling it was like a fairytale & felt just right. They purchased this home in July, & in October they walked together from their petite castle to St. Albert’s Church down the road & were married. In this home, they welcomed their 2 children, created multiple outdoor spaces to enjoy meals outside & play, & planted edible gardens w/ their kids. Their additions include Kishu mandarin, Meyer lemon, Mexican lime, Pink Lady apple, Adriatic & Mission figs trees, raised beds & more. Hdwd floors, updated kitchen & bathroom, freshly painted inside & out. It's sublime!
