A stunningly updated 2 BD, 2 BA corner unit in the historic Bellevue-Staten building along Lake Merritt, 492 Staten Ave #301 is a crowning example of sophisticated city living. High ceilings with stately arches, wood accents, and beautiful water views frame a sweeping 1,700 square feet of impeccably laid-out space. Sleek upgrades strike an extraordinary balance between original period details and updated nods to this East Bay landmark’s Art Deco style. Gleaming marble, tile, and quartz trace a throughline between kitchen, baths, and the airy living room's ornate fireplace, while comfort and convenience abound thanks to ample closets and cabinets, integrated speakers, and cushioned window seats. The spacious south-facing primary suite looks straight out to the Lake and enjoys a polished en-suite bath and walkthrough closet with mirrored floor-to-ceiling storage. The north wing offers a second bedroom, bath, and dedicated storage room. This building is an icon grounded as much in inimitable aesthetic as it is in ease of life thanks to a 24-hour doorman and valet parking, and it benefits from the Mills Act intended to reduce property taxes. Great location near amenities, eateries & freeways. Become a part of the ethos and exquisite architectural tradition of the Bay Area.
