About This Home

As of March 2023

This is it...iconic Alamo, single level charmer in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the Valley. So many boxes are checked; 3 original bedrooms plus a guest suite (adu), plus 2.5 baths. Full kitchen, family room with wood beamed ceiling, wood plank flooring, used brick fireplace with insert, formal dining and a living room with a wood beamed ceiling and fireplace. All of this under a newer roof. This level half acre, corner lot allows more than enough room for the patio, recently redone in-ground gunite pool, boat AND RV parking and a functional well. More than anything else, this neighborhood of well cared for homes is literally around the corner from the delightful Alamo village with its multiple coffee shops, restaurants, post office, drugs stores, hardware and Safeway shopping. Nearly halfway between Walnut Creek and Danville, its such a pleasure to bike the Regional Park’s 32 mile Iron Horse trail to acclaimed elementary through high school or to connect with public transportation including BART. You are invited to put your touch on this wonderful home...
