3877 Howe St

A low-rise condominium building constructed in 1964, the property rises three stories and primarily offers studio and one-bedroom residences. The exterior reads as a mid‑century urban block set directly on Piedmont Avenue, with elevator access to upper floors and a shared rooftop deck that provides panoramic East Bay and Oakland Hills views. Individual homes vary from modest studios to renovated one-bedrooms featuring eat-in kitchens, enclosed patios or sun-porches, and large windows that emphasize natural light. Common elements include on-site coin laundry, assigned covered parking or secured garage spaces, private storage lockers, and a communal roof deck for socializing and city views. Building systems and finishes show a mix of original midcentury bones and periodic modern updates — many units list refreshed flooring, kitchens, and bathrooms. The HOA manages exterior upkeep, insurance, garbage, and water; entry is controlled and the community presents a well-maintained, urban-residential feel. Located at the heart of the Piedmont Avenue retail corridor, the building sits within walking distance of restaurants, cafes, grocery, medical services and reliable transit links including MacArthur BART and Transbay bus lines, offering a compact, walkable Oakland neighborhood lifestyle.
