About This Home
As of February 2025Nestled in the serene and highly sought-after Thousand Oaks neighborhood, this exceptional home offers the perfect blend of modern elegance and peaceful solitude. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this meticulously updated 2-bed, 1.5-bath residence is a gem.The spacious living room is the heart of the home with an expansive picture window providing sweeping panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, and the iconic Marin Headlands. Cozy up to the fireplace for sunsets over the Pacific. Details have been thoughtfully updated to fulfill the needs of modern living while retaining the original mid-century details. The modern kitchen, a chef’s delight, boasts ample counter space and high-quality appliances so cooking is a joy. The stylish bathrooms have been thoroughly upgraded.This large, flat lot in the hills is a rarity. Outdoors there's a variety of spaces for dining, lounging, playing or gardening. Imagine morning coffee on the patio with bay views. The lot allows for possible expansion (buyer to verify). The cul-de-sac offers a quiet respite yet it’s close to coffee, dinner and groceries in Kensington Circle, and Tilden are just steps away. This home is a sanctuary in East Bay’s most desirable area. You won’t want to miss this one!
