About This Home

As of April 2021

Beautifully designed with a French accent, this light-filled one bedroom condo couldn’t be more charming. Everything about it is well-considered. Located in a 4-unit classic brown shingle on a tranquil street in the Elmwood, the back door opens to a gracefully curated garden with brick patio for outdoor entertaining. Side yard, patio and shed are exclusive to the home. Back yard is shared with one other owner. Airy and bright living room with fireplace, built-ins and niche. Tasteful and updated gourmet kitchen with Euro-style appliances, solid surface counters and plenty of cabinets. Speaking of storage: 2 large bedroom closets, built-ins and nooks, pantry, garden shed, under side porch and a designated space in the basement. In-unit laundry too! Ideal as a pied-a-terre, downsizing or alternative to renting while studying/teaching at CAL. So close to campus and all the great Elmwood shops and restaurants! Walkscore® 90 and a biker’s paradise. BART, AC Transit and Transbay bus nearby.
