This charming 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home in Oakland recently underwent a 3-week transformation, overseen by project director Cygridh Rooney and marketed by agent Mark DuBois of KW Advisors Home Concierge. Under Cygridh's meticulous guidance, every room in the house received comprehensive attention. Walls, ceilings, doors, and trims were revitalized with fresh paint and patching. The kitchen was updated with a new glass door insert and the front entry was made more welcoming by removing the outdated security door. Essential safety features such as carbon monoxide detectors were installed, along with practical updates like new switch plates, outlets, and door knobs. The downstairs area saw significant improvements with the installation of engineered wood and a leveled concrete subfloor, creating a seamless flow throughout the space. The garage door and trims were given a fresh coat of paint, enhancing the home's curb appeal. The backyard transformation was particularly striking, featuring a new French drain system, carefully placed pavers, and a rejuvenated garden space, ideal for outdoor relaxation and entertainment. Once this project concluded, the home sold for $1,020,000, earning a profit of $38,494 for the sellers.
