About This Home

As of June 2023

Introducing this beautiful 1928 2Bd 1.5Ba bungalow home, located just minutes from shopping, dining, and downtown Martinez. This house is the epitome of old world charm rarely seen today. Many of the original details remain. As you step inside, you'll immediately notice the abundance of natural light that flows throughout the home. The floor plan is thoughtfully designed, with a seamless flow that connects each space. The expansive living room features a statement fireplace and built-in cabinets, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The formal dining space is equally impressive, with wood-paneled walls, custom built-ins, and a spectacular chandelier that adds a touch of elegance to the space. The eat-in kitchen is conveniently located just off the dining room and has plenty of storage space for all your cooking essentials. Hardwood flooring and tile can be found throughout the home, adding to its charm and character. Step outside and you'll discover a delightful garden and lushly landscaped grounds that are perfect for relaxing or hosting friends and family. The detached garage could be the perfect ADU and basement with laundry offer lots of additional storage space. Welcome home!
