About 4665 Fair Avenue
Welcome Home
This shingled home has a lot going on behind its doors. Enter through an inviting covered porch into an expansive living room with a pass-through to a large, eat-in country kitchen. Three bedrooms are artfully arranged around the living areas for unparalleled flexibility: one is located next to the full bathroom, lending itself to use a traditional primary bedroom; another sits behind divided light double doors and overlooks the front yard; the third, currently used as a dining room and office, offers access to a spacious second-level deck and its bay views. Past the kitchen sits a den with a picture window, a wood-burning stove, a laundry nook and second bathroom with stall shower, and access to the backyard and lower level.
Downstairs lies the rambling backyard and a treasure trove of bonus spaces, including a rec room and a music studio where Bay Area legend Carlos Santana is said to have rehearsed and recorded in years past.
