Property Description

This sweet and cozy bungalow is as cute inside as it is outside! Set higher and back from the street with an inviting front porch, it's a charming and sun-filled home eagerly awaiting its new owner. The living room boasts a gas fireplace, built-in vintage corner cabinet, and a beautiful hardwood floor. The large kitchen has plenty of cabinet space, a large dining area, room for laundry machines, and a sliding door looking out to the professionally-landscaped backyard. A hallway opens to two light and bright bedrooms plus a vintage-inspired bathroom. The magical backyard is an outdoor retreat where you can relax and enjoy the birds and butterflies that come to visit. The land that this home and the house to the north sit on, was previously owned by the same family. The story goes that the father had both homes built for his daughters and designed a shared driveway between the two. That driveway leads to what is now shed space for each property. Ideally located just blocks from El Cerrito Plaza, local shops and restaurants, El Cerrito Plaza BART station, and multiple bus lines.
