The beautifully remodeled kitchen (2021) has Fisher & Paykel/Bosch/LG stainless steel appliances, quartz counters and partial SF Bay views. Sun-drenched rooms + hardwood floors throughout. Beautiful Bay + SF city views from the living room, kitchen + primary bedroom. Has a spacious backyard deck and sunny patio with direct access from the house, and plenty of lush, mature landscaping that provides exceptional green screen privacy between neighbors. Fresh interior paint + newer exterior paint (2024). Extensive updates/improvements by the present owners (see Disclosures for full list). Located 1 mile to highly rated Kensington Elementary School, and 10 min to both El Cerrito BART stations + I-80. A lovely home in every way. Move right in!
