After touring many homes in Oakland, Josh & Mark were immediately drawn to 3280 Guido Street. The curvature of the arched doorways & windows, & the rounded fireplace reminded them of the Gaudi houses & buildings that they visited on a recent vacation in Barcelona. They loved their home & the neighborhood & in 2017, spared no expense in transforming the outdoor spaces to their now show-stopping glory. Some features are, corten steel details & gate, IPE decking, granite steps, & lighting to highlight the grounds. Enjoy the thriving agaves, grasses, ferns, manzanita, lemon tree, & other specimens that wrap around this home. The rear fence is flanked by Italian Cypresses which have been associated w/ strength, endurance, & protection. Except for the bottle brush & mature olive trees, every plant was selected & planted at this property under Mark & Josh's stewardship. The kitchen w/ garden window & breakfast nook, living room w/ vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, garage w/ interior access & extra space for a workshop, laundry room, & lg. hall closet are all features that you will appreciate. Improvements such as seismic retrofitting (2013), new roofing (2023), new furnace & ducting (2023), & updated bathroom (2009) are a few of the ways this home was lovingly cared for. Just Gorgeous!
