About This Home

As of September 2025

Golden hour dinners, nature outside every window, and peaceful privacy right here in the El Sobrante Hills area of Richmond. This 4BD/2BA single-story home blends storybook charm with everyday comfort, starting with showstopping curb appeal - a majestic tree, river rock accents, a sweet reading bench, and freshly painted exterior. Inside, warm wood-tone floors and a cozy fireplace create an inviting backdrop, while an updated kitchen with granite counters, stainless appliances, and recessed lighting is ready for everything from weekday mornings to weekend entertaining. Your eye is drawn straight to the backyard, where tree-lined views, endless sky, and a tranquil fountain set the tone for morning coffee or quiet evenings under the stars. Every room frames nature beautifully through dual-pane windows. Outside, a tree-shaded deck, pea gravel patio, and open mulched area offer endless potential - from al fresco dining to your dream urban garden. Built-in closet systems, updated baths, a new two-car garage door, and a long RV side yard (perfect for your Airstream or boat) complete the picture. There’s room for all of your adventures. A true retreat, yet close to it all, walk to the neighborhood park, explore Kennedy Grove and El Sobrante Ridge and commute with ease. This is the one!
