About This Home

1690 12th Street, Oakland Charming 2BR/1BA West Oakland Flat | Original Hardwood Floors | In-Unit Laundry | Shared Yard $2,495/ Month Available Now! Welcome to 1690 12th Street, a charming two-bedroom, one-bathroom first-floor flat offering classic Oakland character, comfortable living space, and an incredibly convenient West Oakland location. Set within a small multi-unit property consisting of a triplex with an additional detached ADU at the rear (Four-Plex Building community), this home offers a more intimate residential setting than a large apartment building. Inside, you'll find beautiful original hardwood floors, high ceilings, abundant character, and the everyday luxury of your own in-unit laundry. Classic Oakland Character One of the first things you'll notice when you step inside is the home's original hardwood flooring, bringing warmth and character throughout the living spaces. High ceilings add to the open, airy feeling of the home and give the interior the charm and proportions you simply don't find in many newer apartments. Located on the first floor, the unit offers convenient everyday access without multiple flights of stairs. With two bedrooms and one full bathroom, the layout provides flexibility for a variety of living arrangements, whether you're looking for a traditional second bedroom, guest room, or dedicated home office. The kitchen is functional but has new appliances; Stainless-Steel Refrigerator and Gas Range. In-Unit Laundry — No Shared Laundry Rooms! One of our favorite features of this home is something every renter appreciates: your own in-unit laundry. No hauling baskets to a laundromat, saving quarters, or coordinating laundry time with the rest of the building. Having laundry right inside the home makes day-to-day living considerably easier. Shared Outdoor Space Residents also have access to a shared yard, providing outdoor space to step outside, enjoy some fresh air, or simply have a little breathing room beyond the apartment itself. The property includes the main triplex along with a separate ADU located toward the rear of the property, creating a small residential community rather than the feel of a large apartment complex. A Convenient West Oakland Location The location is a major advantage for anyone who wants convenient access to Oakland, San Francisco, and the greater Bay Area. West Oakland BART is approximately 0.6 mile away, making the station accessible without needing to drive. From West Oakland, BART provides exceptionally convenient connections into Downtown Oakland, San Francisco, Berkeley, and destinations throughout the Bay Area. Downtown Oakland is also just minutes away, putting restaurants, cafés, nightlife, entertainment, shopping and everyday conveniences within easy reach. Jack London Square, Old Oakland, Chinatown and Oakland's waterfront are all nearby, giving residents plenty to explore without living directly in the middle of Downtown. For those who commute by car, the neighborhood also offers convenient access to the area's major freeway connections, including I-880 and I-980, making it easy to connect to Downtown Oakland, Emeryville, Berkeley, San Francisco and other East Bay destinations.
