First time on the market in 74 years! This Crocker Highlands Grand Dame, a Prairie School Craftsman designed by famed architects Newsom & Newsom—whose family lineage includes California Governor Gavin Newsom—has had just two owners since its inception in 1919. Now squarely in the fixer-upper category, 685 Rosal offers perhaps a once-in-a-generation opportunity to bring this pedigreed property back to life as the dream home it's meant to be. The original Schaefer Residence features generous room proportions, with all three bedrooms on the same level, including a spacious primary suite that opens to the original enclosed sun porch. The expansive living room adjoins a family room, once used as a library, while the formal dining room and impressive foyer—originally called the Reception Hall—reflect the gracious scale of the home. Much of the original period detail remains, including white oak hardwood floors throughout, beautifully preserved gumwood moldings, crown molding, a wide central staircase with wooden balustrades, built-ins, and an ornate fireplace with a wood surround. The basement level, with a ceiling height measured at 7.5 feet, was once the family rumpus room, complete with a pool table. This space offers exciting potential for expanded living area on the ground floor; buyers are encouraged to investigate possibilities with the Oakland Building Department. There is also a detached garage at the front of the property in need of replacement. Set on an expansive 7,200 sf, down-sloping lot in a sylvan setting, the property has been cleared and awaits your landscaping vision. Enjoy a peaceful, upscale street just seconds from Lakeshore Ave. and the amenities that make Oakland so special: the Grand Lake Farmers Market, Grand Lake Theater, an abundance of restaurants and shops, and many transportation options. What an opportunity to restore a piece of Oakland architectural history in a neighborhood of $2M–$3M homes! This property is assigned to Crocker Highlands Elementary. Buyers must independently verify; schools are not guaranteed. Buyers/investors must use their own agent.
