About This Home
A home where modern sustainability meets timeless comfort. This beautifully updated residence has achieved a rare 10/10 energy rating, thanks to a complete gas-to-electric conversion—no gas here, just smart, efficient living designed for the future. Step inside this 2+ bedroom, 1 bathroom home to find freshly painted interiors, reimagined ceilings with recessed lighting, and a European-inspired kitchen anchored by a sleek Copper battery-powered induction range. A bonus flex room opens to the garden, while a cozy office nook provides a perfect tucked-away spot for work-from-home days. Thoughtful upgrades include a brand-new roof (2025), Harvest thermal battery-powered furnace and water heater, sewer lateral compliance, and envelope improvements that maximize insulation and efficiency. Details like newer fixtures, polished cabinetry, refreshed doors, and painted porches reflect the care poured into this home. Outdoors, the garden is a sanctuary: dine beneath a trellis, listen to the koi pond, and enjoy fruit from Meyer lemon, peach, plum, pineapple guava, grapes, strawberries, and blueberries. With peekaboo views, natural light, and access to top-rated El Cerrito schools*, this move-in-ready home balances convenience with retreat—tucked in the hills, yet close to BART and more!
