About This Home

As of July 2022

In the heart of Albany on a wide, tree-lined street, this bright and cheery 1930's Tudor has wonderful curb appeal, an easy floor plan, and an abundance of natural light. The living room charms with a large picture window, central fireplace, artful mosaic tile and high ceilings. The upgraded kitchen has newer appliances and a sweet breakfast nook surrounded by windows. It opens to the formal dining room and is joined by a half bath/laundry room with access to the outside. Half a level up you'll find 3 bedrooms and one recently remodeled bathroom. The primary bedroom opens to the back decks and lush, landscaped backyard that invites lounging and dining on the large decks, picking lemons from the mature tree, and playing on the lawn. Located in one of the most desirable areas of Albany next to Thousand Oaks, a few blocks from Solano Avenue shops and eateries, Memorial Park, the Albany Pool, and Albany’s top-rated schools. Just over a mile to the El Cerrito BART & freeway access.
