About the Property
Welcome to Unit 503 in the iconic Van Buren Tower — a mid-century gem nestled in Oakland’s beloved Adams Point neighborhood. This rarely available condo offers a beautiful blend of modern updates and timeless design in one of the city’s most walkable and vibrant communities.
Perched on the 5th floor, this light-filled home enjoys peaceful views of the surrounding hills, framed by expansive floor-to-ceiling windows that blur the line between indoors and out. Whether you're entertaining or unwinding, the open layout and natural light create a warm, inviting atmosphere.
White-oak parquet flooring runs throughout the living spaces, lending warmth and elegance to every room. The kitchen features new stainless steel appliances and fixtures, butcher block countertops, a convenient breakfast bar, and generous cabinetry — offering both style and function for everyday cooking or casual entertaining.
The spacious bedroom offers private balcony access, upgraded closet doors, and a quiet retreat from the buzz of city life — perfect for a good read or your morning coffee.
Van Buren Tower amenities include secure garage parking, EV charging, gated bike storage, coded elevator access, community laundry (app-operated), on-site locked storage, a welcoming lobby, a well managed HOA, and shared outdoor spaces. It's also a pet-friendly building — because your furry companion deserves a great home, too.
The location is second to none. Stroll to Lake Merritt, enjoy brunch at Grand Lake Kitchen, cocktails at 389, or a cozy dinner at local favorites like Mama and Comal. Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, and the Grand Lake Farmers Market are all just minutes away. And for commuters, BART, the 580 freeway, and Transbay bus lines are all easily accessible.
