About 555 El Dorado Ave
Open House SHOWING ON MONDAY June 22nd 5-5:45! No need to call/text; just attend showing. If you’re unable to attend, please check back on June 23rd to see future showings if still available. Date night on Piedmont Avenue, grab cocktails in Uptown, then come home to your own peaceful retreat tucked away on a tree-lined street. 555 El Dorado is the best of Oakland living—vibrant when you want it, quiet when you don't. This spacious upper-level residence in a classic 1906 fourplex offers approximately 1,100 square feet of character and comfort with two generous bedrooms and one full bath. Original hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and beautiful period details create a warm, timeless feel, while abundant natural light fills the living room, formal dining room, and kitchen. The expansive dining room is equally suited for hosting memorable dinner parties or creating the ultimate work-from-home setup. The updated kitchen features a gas range, dishwasher, and plenty of space to cook before heading out to one of the neighborhood's incredible restaurants. Just outside, your private back deck overlooks the shared backyard—perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, or taking Zoom calls surrounded by greenery. Unlike many rentals, you'll also enjoy the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer plus your own dedicated storage room in the secure basement, giving you plenty of space for bikes, camping gear, or holiday décor. Located just one block from Piedmont Avenue and minutes to Uptown, you're surrounded by some of Oakland's best restaurants, cafés, bars, and shops. Walk to neighborhood favorites like The Wolf, Cato's, Dona, La Loulou, Bar César, and Cafe Chiave, or hop over to Uptown for a night out before returning home to the relaxed charm of a small, well-maintained fourplex. *Gas range/oven *Personal washer/dryer in unit *Good size closets *Shower over tub *Private locked storage room *Dishwasher Amenities Courtyard, Dishwasher, Dryer, Hardwood floors, Heat, Private balcony, Refrigerator, Storage space, Stove and oven, Tile floors, View, Washer TERMS: AVAILABLE: 6/19/26 $3400 month $3400 deposit 1 year lease to start 1 months rent and deposit due at move in.
