The house is in an excellent walkable neighborhood that felt safe and convenient. (It is a block from a supermarket and TWO starbucks!) The backyard has a cute secret garden vibe. The house and furnishings itself is a bit old and dated. I found it a little too thriftshop, but my husband liked it. There is also an old house musty smell that takes some time getting use to. (My friend's apartment in Oakland has the same smell. Maybe it is an old Oakland home thing?). Overall, the convenient location and pricing are the most appealing part of this listing.
