The house is pretty nice inside and it's in a great location for hitting spots in downtown Oakland, but there are some caveats.
Heed the warning about this home being across from the freeway. It's literally across from the onramp to the freeway. So cars hit the gas to get onto it, and sometimes it's so loud it will wake you up.
I would say this is not a walking neighborhood. One morning my fiancé came out of the house and had to step around a homeless man that was eating on the steps in front of door. We never felt unsafe here, but we're used to Oakland and not bothered or deterred by it. Still, it's something to be aware of. It's a cute house but not really in a "neighborhood".
The house is an upstair/downstairs duplex. We were woken up one night at about 3am by people making all kinds of noise going up and down the stairs. I think they were with a band and were moving instruments to put into their van.
The bathroom is "Jack and Jill Style". That means it has 2 doors, each opening to a bedroom. But one of those bedrooms is not the master bedroom. That mean my fiancé and I had to walk through the bedrooms where the kids were sleeping in order to use the bathroom.
