Property description
Welcome to this wonderful light-filled 1930 ‘s bungalow with filtered views of the San Francisco Bay. During an extensive remodel in 2018, the existing footprint of the kitchen, sunroom ,and dining area was thoughtfully reimagined into a bright chef’s kitchen, a dining area with partial views of the Bay, a laundry room, and access to the rear gardens. There are two generous bedrooms, and a room for a home office. The bathroom has been recently updated.It is hard to forget the graceful living room with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and gas fireplace. The living room’s western exposure affords beautiful light, and San Francisco Bay views are delightful. The rear gardens are private, and perfect for al fresco dining or play. The property enjoys an expansive garage, big enough for bicycles and cars. 265 Colgate is close to the Kensington shopping corridor, and very near multiple bus stops for the San Francisco Express bus, BART , UC Berkeley, Downtown Berkeley, and El Cerrito.
