About This Home
As of July 2021Your very own Cape Cod with SF Bay views! Beautifully updated with a newly-remodeled kitchen, you'll marvel at the fabulous sunsets from the dining table, or while preparing meals, or simply enjoying drinks on the classic front porch. Maybe while in front of a roaring fire under the huge vaulted ceiling. Perhaps on the upper terrace while idling in the garden. So many special places! Through the French doors you'll find a lovely brick patio surrounded by nature, the perfect spot to cool off on a warm day, or enjoy morning coffee. The primary bedroom is a big one, with double closet, looking out to the patio and garden. The second bedroom is nice-sized, with southern exposure. There is a double garage, which doubles as a workshop and offers extra storage. So near Tilden Park, yet only minutes from BART, SF direct bus, North Berkeley and Kensington shops, as well as the UC campus. And Orinda is close by -- a gorgeous drive along scenic Grizzly Peak. What a gem!
