Full of character and thoughtful updates, this charming 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home sits on a rare, sunny, flat double lot, offering privacy, abundant outdoor space, and room to make it your own. Set behind a private gate with generous parking, the property feels like a peaceful retreat. Inside, beautifully restored original hardwood floors, stained glass windows, and a cozy fireplace showcase the home's architectural charm. A spacious formal dining room with built-in cabinetry leads to the kitchen, featuring a custom island, new appliances, a charming greenhouse window, and direct access to an expansive deck with views of the surrounding hills. The home's distinctive bungalow bonus room offers flexible space for a creative studio, home office, or movie nights, while the unfinished basement provides additional storage and possibilities. Outside, the expansive grounds are a gardener's dream, with established fruit trees, edible & flowering plants, a custom chicken coop, and a newly built backyard studio shed. There's plenty of sunny space to relax, entertain, and grow. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint, new lighting, copper plumbing, refreshed bathrooms, new fencing, and a newer roof (2018). A special blend of original character, modern comforts, and exceptional outdoor space, this haven is also minutes from nearby schools, neighborhood parks, the Laurel District, and offers easy access to Alameda.
