Sad Oakland teardown seeks $375,000

What once was a beautiful circa-1895 house in Oakland is now a depressing sight to behold. But all hope isn’t lost on this little Victorian in the rough. Someone could (and should) come along to restore it to its original essence.

Coming in at two beds, one bath, and 743 square feet, 1020 Willow needs a new ceiling, new windows, new entryway stairs, new everything.

Most likely, a buyer will come along and bulldoze the entire abode for something decidedly more contemporary. Shame, really. It’s located on a block with many other Vics. Fingers crossed for a redo that keeps the tiny home’s integrity (wherever’s left of it) intact.

Asking is $375,000.
