Property Description
This 1941 updated bungalow delivers a spacious two-bedroom main house, a fantastic permitted 2023 ADU, and flexibility that keeps on giving. Solid construction details include graceful archways, random-plank wood floors in the living room, and touches of mosaic artistry from the former owner. The main house has two bedrooms and one bath. A generous formal dining room opens to the yard and a spacious kitchen suited to everyday cooking or entertaining. A park-like backyard, ample patio and deck space, and direct outdoor access from all three bedrooms (house and ADU) make indoor-outdoor living easy. One can easily imagine a large gathering or garden party in the surrounding yard. Exceptional stewardship over the years has resulted in thoughtful modern updates. The home has had major improvements, including foundation strengthening and piers, and updated electrical. The timeless kitchen was updated with granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and new tile flooring. Refinished floors and a newly painted interior keep the house feeling fresh and inviting. The 2023-built cottage-style ADU presents in brand-new condition. It includes a full kitchen, full bath, and the ability to curtain off a separate bedroom. Its modern construction includes a mini-split heat pump for energy-efficient heating and air-conditioning, making it an especially flexible space for rental income, visiting guests, or multigenerational living. The property also offers abundant off-street parking, with a long driveway and a substantial concrete pad on both sides of the house that provides additional patio space to entertain. This space could also accommodate additional storage sheds without intrusion into the beautiful backyard. The flexibility of a permitted ADU is like Shel Silverstein's “The Giving Tree.” It can change and grow with its owners. It can make first-time homeownership more affordable, because rental income from the ADU can help with the mortgage payments. That fresh start can grow into a dream space for the future. Imagine taking back the space as your own studio or home office. Or welcome visiting friends without putting them under your roof. Parents or grandparents can have their own nearby household. It can then give adult children a safety net or a place to launch. It can even be a comfortable home for an on-site caregiver. Conveniently located near El Cerrito Plaza, BART, shopping, and dining.
