This house is your peaceful sanctuary in a vibrant central location. The first floor has everything you want to relax in peace or entertain with loved ones. Glistening oak hardwood floors span the living spaces, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that complements the home's heritage. Host enchanting dinners in the formal dining room, with original Craftsman built-in cabinets that enhance both form and function. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with modern amenities, featuring stainless steel appliances, sleek granite countertops, and chic Shaker cabinets that seamlessly merge functionality and style. A delightful eat-in nook provides the perfect spot for casual dining or enjoying your morning coffee while basking in the warm, natural light that fills the space. The top room feels like a tower in a castle, with windows along three sides. This room is taller than surrounding houses, giving you an amazing view; the one thing taller is the stunning redwood tree in the backyard. The tower room also boasts a secret hiding space in the closet, complete with a ladder, for your personal treasures. The middle bedroom is a perfect tranquil nook with a wide window, recently updated, providing a stunning view of the garden.

Details such as original Craftsman glass doorknobs give elegance and grace. The large living room is a welcoming space as is the breezy and shaded front porch. In the main bathroom, a clawfoot tub makes soaking a pleasure. 

A detached structure in the backyard with a kitchenette and full bathroom is a versatile bonus space, great for a home office, or creative studio**. The beamed ceilings add a rustic touch to the space, evoking a cozy and inviting ambiance.

The masterpiece of this home is the garden. A cactus growing alongside the house blooms with purple flowers in the spring. The generously-sized, landscaped yard is a canvas for outdoor adventures, offering open spaces for gardening, play, and relaxation. It is an unusually large lot for the area, and it is immaculately landscaped with native plants and flowers. The garden has blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, an orange tree, and a persimmon tree. Giant flowering plants make sure that you have bright colors throughout the year, and carefully chosen nectars draw butterflies and hummingbirds to your oasis. A winding paved path brings you back to your firepit retreat. Enjoy sitting under the stars by fire side as you feel at one with nature as the windbreezes through the trees and surrounds you. 

When it comes to the hustle and bustle of everyday life, you are right where you need to be. The neighborhood has a Walk Score® of 91 with one of the area's best grocery stores within two blocks. Commuting is a breeze with BART 5 blocks away. Parking is easy, with convenient off-street parking in the driveway. You can move with ease wherever you need to go and get home with time to spare to relax and unwind.
