About This Home

As of May 2025

Located on a quiet lane just north of the bike patch, the dedicated open space of the Montini Preserve and Overlook Trail, this charming vintage 3 bedroom/2 bath home shows pride of ownership inside and out. Updated with fresh paint inside and out, dual pane windows, newer roof, and a tasteful refresh on the landscaping. The backyard is a quiet and private wonderland complete with extensive plans for a new swimming pool but wonderful just as it is now with mature landscaping and bursts of color in all directions. Backing to a large 1800's estate built for one of General Vallejo's daughters and later owned by Steve Silver, founder of the iconic Beach Blanket Babylon. The backyard is private with no homes looking in and it feels like you back to a park. Interior features include hardwood floors (even under the brand new carpet in the living room), flagstone wood burning fireplace, indoor laundry, wonderful natural light, generous sized rooms, and sliders from several rooms leading to the stunning grounds. Enjoy dining al fresco under the stars with the charming bistro lights. Feel like you are on vacation at home and walk to the Plaza on the bike path cutting through dedicated open spaces. The charm of a vintage home, the convenience of recent upgrades, and a prime location.
