About this single-family home
Modern, Bohemian bungalow with design-forward updates, two decks, and a mini-urban farm with 6 fruit trees and 4 raised veggie beds. This open and bright 2 bedroom, 1 bath gem has just the right designer touches: handmade tile from Spain, handspun ceramic lights from India, custom-crafted solid oak built-ins around the fireplace, and wallpaper to make you swoon. Sit back on your deck with your beverage of choice in your private sanctuary, soaking up the sun and gazing at your weekly harvest of veggies, figs, plums, citrus, and sour cherries. A lot of seller improvements over the years, including seismic upgrades, structural foundation work, updated kitchen (Bertazzoni, Bosch, Fisher & Paykel appliances), updated bath, energy-efficient tankless water heater, and hydronic baseboard radiant heating. One small off-street parking spot (behind gates) that the current owner uses periodically for her car, usually when traveling. What a perfect location, just two doors down from the Albany border, 3 blocks from Solano Avenue, and close to everything the Gillman District and Westbrae neighborhood have to offer: Fieldwork Brewing, Whole Foods, Philz Coffee, Lulu, Acme Bread, and Westbrae Biergarten. Don't miss it.
