Outdoor Living at its Best

Beautifully updated 3+ bedroom, 3 bath home located in an idyllic setting in the El Cerrito hills. Spanish-style steps lead you to the charming front entrance where an antique door with vintage, glass bottle window panes welcomes you in. Upon entry you will find a light-filled living room that overlooks the bay, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams + fireplace. The renovated open kitchen, with a large center island, is shared with the dining room, both opening to the deck. The upper level consists of a bedroom with double closets + en suite bath, two additional bedrooms with bay views, and a stylish hall bath; the lower level includes laundry, a spa-like bathroom, and a flexible family room with adjoining bonus room for 4th bedroom or home office.

The yard is simply magical! The entire front yard, set back from the street, is dotted with succulents along a terraced garden bed. There is a spacious grassy area that enjoys afternoon sun. The dreamy backyard includes a quaint fairy garden tree house, sunny brick patio where you can put up a basketball hoop or roast marshmallows over a fire pit. The heart of the backyard is the stunning outdoor dining area with custom-built Argentinian BBQ with space for a pizza oven. Even the most timid of chefs will enjoy making dinners in the outdoor garden. Two apple + cherry-plum trees, mandarin and lemon trees produce a plethora of fruit, and the beautiful garden provides an array of color throughout the year. On a given day, you can watch the hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and birds roaming about.
