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.

Application Requirements & Showing Policy: A $40 non-refundable application fee is required for each applicant 18 years of age or older. All applicants will be screened based on a combination of factors including credit history, income verification, rental history, and overall financial responsibility. Applicants should generally demonstrate:
• Verifiable income of approximately 2.5× the monthly rent
• Strong credit history (generally 700+ FICO)
• Ask me about Alternative Credit Qualifying, Now available in California
Applicants with lower credit scores may still be considered depending on compensating factors such as rental history, income strength, or the use of a qualified co-signer. If a co-signer is used, the co-signer should demonstrate excellent credit (720+) and verifiable income of ~ 5× the monthly rent. If you are unsure whether you meet these guidelines, please feel free to contact the listing agent prior to submitting an application to discuss your situation. Applications are reviewed on a first come, first serve policy. All applications from Tenants AND their Guarantors must be completed to be considered in process. If all applications are not in, then you do not automatically hold your space in line.
Showing Appointments; All showings are by appointment only and in multiple party showings. All showings must be confirmed directly with the listing agent.
