Another well preserved Italianate home in the San Antonio district of East Oakland on East 17th Street. As I drive around the neighborhood, I'm astonished at the number of Victorian era structures still in use. Although once a large family home, this one is now divided up into seven apartments. I think the wrought iron fence is original to the property circa 1880, as is the giant magnolia tree that shades the south side of the house. Isn't it graceful looking?
Wow, it's beautiful and grand!
