With four bedrooms and 2.5 baths, this updated two-story home in the Shields-Reid neighborhood has space for a larger household and is centrally located for an easy commute. This house offers ornate iron gates and brickwork, a gabled portico, and a dramatic blue door that complements the barn-style garage entry. Inside, you pass the stairs and a powder room before reaching the spacious open-plan living area, which offers access to the backyard through a slider. The kitchen, which features a breakfast bar and lots of cabinet storage, has been updated with new paint, gleaming black stone counters, and stainless appliances. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a remodeled en suite with a large wet room shower tiled in minimalist white. A second full bath has been updated, and all four bedrooms have plush carpet. The attached garage features an EV charging station, and there’s additional parking for one car in the drive. A low-maintenance paved backyard offers space for outdoor dining and entertaining or a container garden. K-12 schools are all less than two miles away. A short drive gets you to the main arteries of Richmond Parkway and San Pablo Avenue, I-80, or the Richmond BART station.
