W est Oakland, recognized for its history, culture, and creativity, is home to Station House, a new enclave of 171 all-electric, solar powered townhomes by City Ventures. Station House is the first major ground-up construction in West Oakland in nearly a decade and one of the only new projects currently under construction in Oakland. The new community is located on the western edge of West Oakland, in the revitalized Prescott neighborhood, near the grounds of the historic 16th Street Train Station. These environmentally friendly, no-gas urban townhomes have open floor plans for modern living with two to three bedrooms, each with their own master suite and private garage. Each home is energy-efficient with advanced appliances and other innovations like NEST thermostats and garages wired for electric car charging that allow these “Green Key” residences to be easier on your budget and friendlier to the earth. “Station House provides an incredible opportunity for potential homebuyers to buy a new home in an area that has a strong investment upside, in a rapidly strengthening real estate market,” said Philip Kerr, CEO, City Ventures Homebuilding. “The community is designed for the region’s forward-thinking, new generation and those who want easy access to Oakland and San Francisco without the excessive rents and home prices.“ Station House homes start in the $600,000s. The community will boast 4,500 square feet of mixed-use retail space enhanced by the presence of elegant private park spaces, yards, patios, and decks. The commuter-friendly neighborhood is located at the “center of everywhere”—San Francisco or the East Bay is minutes away by car, train, ferry, or bike. The residences are less than a 10 minute BART ride to downtown San Francisco or downtown Oakland and just a few miles away from Berkeley, Rockridge, Emeryville, Uptown, and Temescal. “As one of the only major for-sale projects in all of Oakland, residents of Station House will feel a unique connection to the surrounding community that is under a remarkable transformation,“adds Kerr. “The area is experiencing a renaissance, with new jobs from companies as big as Uber and small as Trouble Coffee, and a diverse group of new homeowners that is discovering the eclectic cool elements that make this area inspiring, unique, and a great place to invest in their future. “
