About 9436 Peach Street

Lifestyle Real Estate Services is proud to present a ready-to-rehabilitate opportunity in Oakland’s Castlemont neighborhood — and the chance to make your vision a reality! Set on a large lot with an expansive four-car garage that’s perfect for the hobbyist or craftsman, this is a property built with the sort of “old craftsmanship” one never sees outside of the luxury market today. This home’s historic details are treasures for the right buyer to revive. Is that buyer you? If so, get in touch with us for your private showing appointment today!

Despite being a modest 2-bedroom, 1-bath structure, one can glean from the architectural details throughout that this was quite the home when it was constructed. A high level of craftsmanship, combined with an attention to the smallest of details, brings about a level of build quality unseen in today’s construction outside of the luxury market. Passing through the entryway, visitors are greeted with the living room’s dramatic and original plastered cove ceiling, which awaits restoration. Moving from the living to dining rooms offers more coved transition structure with artistic insets on both sides. The dining room is, in a word, enormous—with original hardwood flooring, an inset china cupboard, and what could be an original, retractable light fixture the likes of which fashioned the current Farmhouse movement before it became what it is today.

The historic details are simply too numerous to list, but include dentil moulding spanning the exterior soffits, 12-inch baseboards running the perimeter of the hardwood floors, ornate interior door hinges with a vine pattern and zero radius, and art deco door casings. This home was built by craftsman dedicated to their trade and, despite the home’s general condition, much of it has been preserved over the decades. We wonder if the back wall of the rear bedroom could be opened to the spare room of the addition, allowing for a second bathroom and the creation of a private primary suite.
