Raised and set back from the street, this classic Craftsman pairs soulful character with fresh, practical upgrades. Warm living and dining rooms show off rich wood paneling, original built-ins, and Marvin wood-clad dual-pane windows that hush the outside world and frame leafy outlooks. The layout moves easily—great for everyday routines and casual entertaining—while period details give the home a grounded, timeless feel. The kitchen offers real working room with ample counters and storage, ready for weeknight speed or relaxed weekend cooking, and the refreshed, generously sized bath reads clean and current. A window-lined bonus room makes an inspiring home office, art studio, or play zone, with just enough separation to keep work and play out of the main living areas.

Outside, the garden is set for low-effort living: a fully paved patio for dining and lounging, raised garden beds for herbs and veggies, and two spacious, rock-solid storage sheds—ideal for bikes, tools, or a tidy workshop. Systems are dialed for comfort and confidence: earthquake retrofitting, newer attic insulation, mini-split air conditioning, a tankless water heater, a newer furnace, and sewer lateral compliance. Everyday amenities, neighborhood parks, and local cafes are within easy reach, and Sequoia Elementary is just a block away. With quick connections to Hwy 13 and 580, commuting is straightforward. Blending authentic charm with smart updates, 3826 Lincoln Ave delivers energized Oakland living—move-in ready, low-maintenance, and easy to love.
