492 Staten Ave, Oakland, CA 94610

A stunningly updated 2 BD, 2 BA corner unit in the historic Bellevue-Staten building along Lake Merritt, 492 Staten Ave #301 is a crowning example of sophisticated city living. High ceilings with stately arches, wood accents, and beautiful water views frame a sweeping 1,700 square feet of impeccably laid-out space. Sleek upgrades strike an extraordinary balance between original period details and updated nods to this East Bay landmark’s Art Deco style. Gleaming marble, tile, and quartz trace a throughline between kitchen, baths, and the airy living room's ornate fireplace, while comfort and convenience abound thanks to ample closets and cabinets and cushioned window seats. The spacious south-facing primary suite looks straight out to the Lake and enjoys a polished en-suite bath and walkthrough closet with mirrored floor-to-ceiling storage. The north wing offers a second bedroom, bath, and dedicated storage room. This building is an icon grounded as much in inimitable aesthetic as it is in ease of life thanks to a 24-hour doorman, valet parking & a roof deck, and it benefits from the Mills Act intended to reduce property taxes. Great location near amenities, eateries & freeways. Become a part of the ethos and exquisite architectural tradition of the Bay Area.
