Remarkably rare offering and opportunity to own one of the best vistas in the East Bay: Roughly 600 sq ft of private balcony spills out of this 2-bedroom home set at the 18th floor, atop the Lakeside Regency building. This outdoor living area is fully open to the sky, enjoys unobstructed views running the length of Lake Merritt, and cries out for use as your secret garden, your personal retreat and entertaining space. Enjoy the sunlight and garden views from the interior as well, through a wall of glass and multiple sliding glass doors that extend the entire length of the home. Two bedrooms, a kitchen, formal dining room and huge living room have been freshly painted, with detailing including solid hardwood interior doors with custom pulls, built-in wine/liquor cabinet with wine refrigerator and shelving for glassware, decorative marble fireplace and mantel, an updated bathroom, and marble and hardwood flooring through the home’s public spaces. A second full bathroom and kitchen await your design choices. As an added benefit, the home's original “glass wall” is under study and subject to potential replacement with brand new energy-efficient sliding glass doors and panes, at no cost to you. 24-hour concierge. Gated parking space, and an additional storage space across the hall.
