About This Home
As of November 2025Enchanting Mediterranean style bungalow blends old world charm with modern upgrades. The 2 bed, 1.5 bath layout includes a remodeled eat in kitchen, updated bathrooms and a versatile bonus room. Owned solar panels, dual-pane windows and a mini split heat pump provide efficient comfort and control; plus a 20 foot subsurface drainage/sump pump system add peace of mind. Outside, a private deck shaded by a detailed pergola creates a cozy sanctuary for morning coffee or evening meals. Beyond lies a beautifully maintained lawn that draws visitors out to relax and unwind. The backyard is a true highlight: a large, flat expanse perfect for hosting gatherings, barbecues and celebrations with friends and family. Mature landscaping and a charming garden area complete the outdoor oasis. Enjoy interior access from an immaculate garage, generous storage and a separate laundry room. Located on a quiet, well kept street near the Laurel District, Fruitvale BART and I 580, this home offers a modern Spanish bungalow aesthetic, ample space to relax and unwind, and the convenience of being close to shops and transit. Move in ready and lovingly maintained, it checks every box for East Bay living.
