Ft. | $2,000/Month | Available October 1st | Pets Welcome Welcome to 6559 Simson Street, a charming and updated 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom Detached ADU tucked away on a quiet street in Oakland’s Millsmont Hills with the most INCREDIBLE VIEWS. Offering approximately 500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, this cozy hillside retreat combines modern conveniences with something increasingly hard to find in the city—peace, privacy, outdoor space and OF COURSE-incredible views. Step outside to your own private fenced yard area with sweeping views toward the Bay, Bay Bridge and San Francisco skyline. There’s plenty of room for outdoor seating, a BBQ, potted plants or your morning yoga and coffee. It's a wonderful extension of the living space and makes this compact home feel considerably larger. Fully remodeled in 2018 and refreshed again in 2024, the interior is bright, clean and functional. The kitchen may be petite, but it's surprisingly well equipped with quartz countertops, an induction cooktop, convection oven with rotisserie, microwave, large double-door refrigerator, stainless-steel hood and stainless-steel kitchen sink, along with plenty of cabinetry for storage. The sunny living room includes additional hidden storage and laminate flooring throughout, while the bedroom features a mirrored closet and separate space heater. A tankless water heater provides hot water on demand. Even better, residents have access to an on-site laundry room with FREE washer and dryer access, and one off-street parking space is included with rent. Additional street parking is generally available nearby and pretty easy to find.
