About This Home

As of April 2025

This immaculate, move-in ready townhome is bathed in natural light and has been meticulously cared for. The attached two-car garage offers convenient direct access to the home, while the spacious, privately fenced backyard creates a serene, single-family home feel. The thoughtfully designed north facing layout is two stories and includes a versatile room on the ground floor, currently serving as a home office, but easily convertible back to a bedroom. A full bathroom is also conveniently located on the first level. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and an additional well-appointed hall bath. The luxurious primary bedroom features an ensuite bathroom and a large walk-in closet. Quality finishes abound, including crown molding, recessed LED lighting, a cozy gas log fireplace, fresh interior paint, brand new plush carpeting, and refinished hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen boasts granite slab countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Convenience is key with quick access to major highways 880, 680, 237, and proximity to BART. The Great Mall is close by, as are Ranch 99 (just 1.9 miles), New India Bazaar (0.8 miles), Marina Grocery, India Metro Hypermarket, Safeway, and a variety of dining options (all within 1.3 miles). This gem won't last long!
