Like living in the country! 2 bed, 1 bath, light-filled cottage with private garden-facing office. Tasteful updates, practical floor plan and oversized lot affording expansion potential. Exuding comfort and practicality, this home invites you to a world of privacy, convenience, and a leave-the-car-at-home lifestyle. One block to nearby Solano Avenue: shops, SF Express bus, and great freeway access. Both bedrooms look out to the yard and have plentiful storage and natural light. The new countertops (2022) and refinished flooring complement the home's natural aesthetic. The generously-sized lot has apricot, lemon, and apple trees while the planter boxes await the new owner's creative energy. Minutes to Ocean View Elementary, the Aquatic Center, parks, El Cerrito Plaza, BART, and tons of restaurants.
