    What's special

    Nestled on an oversized lot in a peaceful pocket of El Cerrito, this delightful cottage is full of character, warmth, and potential. Its classic wooden structure, set amidst a lush, woodsy landscape, creates a seamless connection to nature. Expansive views stretch across Albany Bulb, the Bay, and the San Francisco skyline. Inside, the living room exudes warmth and character, where vaulted wood-beamed ceilings lend a sense of airy charm, and the fireplace provides a cozy focal point for quiet evenings. The kitchen is fully equipped and ready to inspire, whether enjoyed as is or reimagined to suit modern tastes. A mudroom with laundry hookups leads to the sprawling backyard, where mature trees and open space allow for endless opportunities. Two well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable retreats, while the full bath retains its original charm, presenting a perfect opportunity for personal touches. Set in a quiet yet highly connected neighborhood, the home is just minutes from San Pablo Avenue’s shops and dining, major freeways, and the scenic Bay Trail. Thoughtfully preserved yet full of opportunity, this is a home with both immediate appeal and room to grow—an inviting retreat with a story waiting to continue.
