1070 Aileen St
About this home
Exciting opportunity to acquire a classic 1920s duplex in the transit-oriented corridor of North Oakland, right on the Emeryville border. This 2,204 sq. ft. property is situated on a generous 4,800 sq. ft. lot. Step inside to find both 1BD/1BA units retaining their original character, featuring refinished hardwood floors and iconic built-in bookshelves flanking a tiled fireplace. The separate dining and living areas provide extensive storage with vintage cabinetry and drawers. The kitchens are functional with updated quartz countertops and white cabinetry. The unique value of these units lies in the expansive lower levels. Both units connect to finished (but unpermitted) lower level spaces, offering an excellent footprint for a home office, gym, or creating a Junior ADU—a conversion concept the City of Oakland increasingly supports. These bonus levels link directly to a huge, shared laundry/mudroom with a utility sink and an attached one-car garage. The property features separate utility meters. Outside, the large, fully fenced backyard features mature garden beds, a level lawn, and a charming brick-paved patio area. Situated just off San Pablo Ave, you have immediate access to I-80, Berkeley, and the dining/shopping districts of Emeryville.

Wildfire hazard designation
CAL FIRE does not map this parcel inside a designated Fire Hazard Severity Zone. That is an absence of state designation, not a guarantee — the seller's Natural Hazard Disclosure remains the authoritative document for this address.
