Welcome to 470 Bancroft Avenue, a beautifully preserved 1923 bungalow that blends timeless character with thoughtful updates. Step inside and you’ll immediately notice the original hardwood floors and classic built-in cabinets in the living and dining rooms, little reminders of the home’s historic soul. The large, updated kitchen is a true centerpiece, with abundant storage, a custom coffee bar, a corner dining nook, and a sunny window box just waiting for your plants. All three bedrooms offer generous closet space, while the primary suite feels like its own retreat, complete with a fully remodeled en suite bath and a versatile bonus area that could be a walk-in closet, home office, or cozy lounge. The serene backyard invites relaxation and entertaining, with privacy, thoughtful landscaping, and a long gated driveway leading to a large two-car garage. Even better, the home comes equipped with owned solar panels, offering energy savings and sustainability. You’re just blocks from neighborhood favorites like As Kneaded Bakery, Zocalo Coffeehouse, and Paradiso. Plus, commuters will love the easy access to BART, the SF bus line, I-580 and I-880.
