Vintage Swagger with Modern Flow! Perched just above it all, this Castro Valley gem nails the balance—mid-century lines, swank vibes, and a sense of ease that just works. From the street, it’s a statement: low-slung, ultra-manicured, the kind of curb appeal that makes you slow down. Inside, everything flows. Living, dining, and kitchen glide from one to the next—open but grounded, anchored by original details that still hum with style. A rich wood built-in sets the tone in the living room, featuring a vintage Nutone built-in audio system. It’s not just cool—it’s soulful. A slider pulls you from the dining space to a generous deck floating above the valley, where sunsets stretch wide and slow. Bedrooms sit in their own wing—quiet, cohesive, full of character. The primary brings that soft mid-century mood. Two more bedrooms and a shared bath round it out—dialed in, totally vibing. And then the den—with a fireplace, patio access, and a mood that shifts easily from cozy to cocktail hour. Storage is abundant. The garage is huge. And out back, the tiered yard is ready for anything—gardens, an ADU, food plots, a studio. The weather’s on your side—temperate, golden, made for living outside. Easygoing, spacious, and full of character—this one just gets it right.
