Rockridge Artist Compound

5239 Boyd Avenue - Oakland, CAJust 3 blocks down from College Ave, on one of Rockridge’s favorite streets, you’ll find this charming Artist Compound at 5239 Boyd Avenue


“Artist” is a term we use loosely these days.  For this compound can be configured a number of ways depending on your creative bent.

The front house, a 1910 bungalow, is charming in its own right.   You’re welcomed with a large open concept living room/dining room/kitchen with high- end fixtures and hardwood throughout. The tastefully updated kitchen brings out the epicurean chef with its custom cabinets, quartz countertops and stainless appliances.  That aesthetic carries through to the updated bath and two sizable bedrooms.

A surprise awaits you on the lower level, which opens to a large guest retreat with fireplace (or potential au pair).  There’s also a private office, and a wine cellar for practicing sommeliers.  

That however is only half the story.  For besides a lush backyard and deck for the gardener, there are four garage/studio spaces with over 600 square feet of “creative” space – whether for cars, woodworking, painting, or the next high tech wonder.

So whether you’re the next Maya Angelou, Jackson Pollock or Steve Jobs, even in the heart of Rockridge, there’s still a place to create your dreams.

    3+ Bedrooms, 2 baths (including Guest Suite)
    Open concept with updated kitchen and bath
    Four garage/studios with over 600 square feet
    Large lush yard with deck
    3 blocks to College Avenue and BART, 5 blocks to Temescal action
