The story
Classic North & East charm, with the renovations already done. Lovingly reimagined and cared for by its owner, this 1946 corner-lot bungalow brings together the character you hoped to find and the comfort of a move-in-ready home. Sunlight fills a living room with hardwood floors, a fireplace, built-in bookshelves and window seats. Curl up with a book, put on a favorite record or catch up with friends. There’s an easy warmth here that makes being home feel good. In the kitchen, gray Shaker cabinetry, subway tile and stainless appliances complement a professional-style gas range, chimney hood and pot filler. Try the recipe you’ve been saving, or sip your morning coffee at the cushioned banquette, with storage tucked beneath the seats. The remodeled bath pairs marble-look tile with black fixtures, linen storage and a frosted-panel sliding barn door. Generous bedroom closets with mirrored doors and organizers help keep daily life in order, while three ductless mini-splits let you adjust heating and cooling where you need it. A laundry room with an all-in-one washer/dryer makes everyday routines easier. The owner’s investment extends well beyond the finishes: updated electrical and PEX water lines, replacement windows, added exterior wall insulation and new drywall, a tankless water heater, and replaced doors, hardware, baseboards and trim. Outside, unwind on the private patio or enjoy the lush lawn with your four-legged companion. Low-maintenance landscaping leaves more time to enjoy your weekends, while the oversized detached two-car garage makes space for a prized car, gym, workshop, art studio or weekend toys. Future ADU potential opens possibilities for multigenerational living. Walk to Catahoula Coffee, The Factory Bar and Tacos El Tucan. Spend a morning hiking Wildcat Canyon or exploring Alvarado Park, or head to Marina Bay for waterfront walks along the San Francisco Bay Trail. Access to Richmond and El Cerrito del Norte BART, Richmond Amtrak, the Richmond Ferry and I-80 gives Bay Area commuters several ways to connect. A classic single-story home, thoughtfully brought forward. Come make it yours.
