Never before on the market, this well-built 1954 home has been lovingly cared for and enjoyed by one family through the years and now awaits its new owners. Enter through a lovely private patio area perfect for enjoying morning breakfast. The unobstructed views of the bay, Golden Gate and Bay Bridges, downtown San Francisco and Oakland, Mt. Tamalpais, and the open hill nature areas capture your attention immediately. Imagine watching the sailboats in the bay on Sunday mornings or fireworks on the 4th of July. All your friends will want to come to your house for those important holidays. Watching the deer and wild turkeys wander the hillsides, squirrels jumping across the fence to retrieve acorns, or sunsets that stretch from past Oakland all the way to Marin county; you will feel like you are on vacation every time you come home. The living room and dining area are spacious with newly refinished hardwood floors and a fireplace. The retro style kitchen has a new stainless steel refrigerator and dishwasher, solid wood paneled wainscoting, and an eat-in area. There are 3 bedrooms with hardwood floors and a bath on the main level with plenty of closet space and built-in cabinetry. Downstairs is a second bath, a large media room, laundry room, and a fun filled family room with wood wainscoting, fireplace, built-in seating and desk areas, and a full bar and kitchen perfect for entertaining large events. The bar, which will remind you of a local neighborhood bar in the city, leads out to a deck and large yard featuring a waterfall and lots of planting areas perfect for any gardener’s desires. Fresh and clean throughout, the home has been repainted inside and out, the windows re-glazed, the floors refinished, new Marmoleum in the kitchen, new carpet installed in the family room, and the deck and stairs to the yard rebuilt. You can just move in and enjoy this lovely home as the previous owners did. Easy access to public transportation that runs on the Arlington, close proximity to BART, del Norte shopping areas, El Cerrito Plaza, parks, and schools (Madera Elementary) makes this an ideal location. Pacific Union International specializes in the Luxury property sales market. This home may not cost a million dollars, but living here will feel as though you are living a Lifestyle that most people only dream of. Every time you look out your windows and take in the magnificent views of the Bay Area, watching the fog roll in from the Golden Gate, the sunsets that stretch from Downtown Oakland to the Marin Headlands, the morning sun reflecting against the windows of San Francisco’s financial district buildings you will know that you are truly lucky. This is California Living at its Finest. Neighborhood Description El Cerrito was originally founded by refugees from the 1906 Earthquake and is now one of the Bay Area's best kept secret. With it's close proximity to San Franciso via 2 BART stops and the Casual Car Pool, Solano Avenue in Albany and Berkey for restaurants and shopping, and Wild Cat Canyon amoung many other parks and recreation areas, El Cerrito is a great place to call home. There is an incredible amount of desirable housing stock, much of which is in the hills while still being a short distance to public transportation and BART. Many of those hill homes offer the most spectacular views of the Bay, Bridges, Cities, and Mount Tamalpais that you will find anywhere in the Bay Area. El Cerrito is a friendly place and a manageable size. It has a wonderful new city Hall where you can go and speak to public officials and not feel like you are dealing with thousands of layers of buerocracy like you'd find in the larger cities nearby. There are some very good elementary schools where parental involvement is encouraged.
