Property description
Nestled behind a fence in a welcoming yard with two decks, and adjacent to Ohlone Greenway, this home will calm you with its simple charm and great location. Catch up with a friend at Bartavelle Coffee & Wine Bar or Westbrae Biergarten. Gather fresh organics daily from the locally renowned Monterey Market. Choose between BART and two Transbay bus lines. This home offers so many ways to simplify your life! The roof was replaced in 2016; foundation, seismic and electrical panel work was completed in 2012; and the private sewer lateral is in compliance. The kitchen was just refreshed, and the recently refinished matchstick hardwood floors have a rich glow. If you have a car, there is plenty of off-street parking in the driveway and garage, which comes with additional workshop and flex space. Disabled access features are a welcome convenience for those who may need them. Everything is here, so make yourself at home.
