Description, features & terms
Modern and Spacious West End Commons Loft-Style Townhome. Experience your piece of urban Bay Area living in this stunning open-concept 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom townhome at West End Commons. Built in 2005 and designed by award-winning architect David Baker, this is the perfect combination of modern urban lifestyle in a tranquil industrial setting.
This 2-level detached townhouse has no shared walls and no neighbors above or below. High ceiling heights, modern architectural elements, and expansive windows give this residence an abundance of natural light. This loft-style home is spacious with an open living, dining, and work space. A beautiful galley kitchen offers granite countertops, bamboo cabinetry, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, gas oven/range, and garbage disposal. The staircase leads to the spacious second floor with one bedroom, a large walk-in closet, and a good-sized bathroom with two wall-mounted Duravit sinks, a tiled shower over a tub, and high-grade lighting fixtures.
Designed by the award-winning firm David Baker + Partners, the individual townhouses at West End Commons combine the functional and stylish aspects of a loft with more traditional aspects of home design. Large open floor plans are paired with well-appointed kitchens and bathrooms as well as more secluded sleeping areas on the upper floors. Each of the townhouses opens on to 1 of 5 lanes. Lined with pavers, lit by streetlights, and landscaped with trees, vines, and grasses, the lanes create an intimate retreat that was inspired by classic urban neighborhoods such as Brooklyn Heights, London’s Islington, and Boston’s North End. A path leading through shared green space provides an inviting place to wander or meet up with friends, neighbors, or clients.
The surrounding neighborhood is just as impressive as the townhome itself. Located in Oakland’s West Clawson neighborhood just 2 blocks south of Emeryville, the development has easy access to Emeryville’s shops, eateries, grocery stores, and entertainment. With a Walk Score of 74 and a Bike Score of 87, frequenting the neighboring businesses in this area will be a breeze. Get your weekend errands done at Target, do a weekend grocery run at Trader Joe’s, or peruse the vast options of shops and eateries at the Public Market and Bay Street, all within two miles of your doorstep. Not to mention the close proximity to major highways and the Bay Bridge making this a commuter’s dream.
