About This Home

As of July 2023

Great opportunity to purchase this fixer located in the hills of Walnut Creek. There is a good sized living room with large windows overlooking the back yard and a fireplace for cozy winter evenings. The kitchen is open to the living area for a roomy feel. The first room in the bedroom hallway has double doors and could be used for an office or study. There is a converted garage with windows facing the front. It had been used as an office. The property is a large 1/2 acre lot with expansive views from the back. The house itself sits on a level portion of the yard. The yard then slopes down in back to another portion of the yard. Perfect for entertaining with plenty of room for a vegi garden or fruit trees. Close to commute routes, downtown shopping and dining. Walnut Creek BART is downtown.
