Situated on a generous 5,400 square foot lot, the property offers both privacy and convenience, being just blocks away from BART and the vibrant Monterey/Hopkins shopping district. Tall ceilings, expansive windows, and original architectural details that harken back to the turn of the century.

The meticulously landscaped yard includes mature fruit trees, a lush grassy play area, and a secluded patio while the large basement offers a versatile space, perfect for a gym, art studio, or home office.
