Delightful, easy-living and surprisingly spacious home in El Cerrito, friendly and inviting! Traditional charm in front and a cool modern vibe in back - a place where happy memories are waiting to be made.

The heart of the home is the bright, open great room with vaulted ceilings, flooded with natural light. This spacious kitchen/dining/family room combo is perfect for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying the beauty of the outdoors through its open connection to the deck and sunny yard. The modern, gorgeous eat-in kitchen- with quality finishes, hardwood floors, quartzite counters, custom maple cabinets and Heath tile backsplash- flows with the spacious airy vaulted great room-- ideal for weekend breakfasts, delicious dinners, peaceful moments and entertaining friends.

The traditional living room in front of the house with original hardwood floors and a cozy warmth, offers a more intimate retreat—perfect for curling up with a good book or enjoying a movie night. The two bedrooms are connected by a refreshed vintage bathroom- the primary is spacious, with lots of closet space, and the second bedroom is a sweet refuge.

Out back, the sunny and spacious yard offers endless possibilities with a lawn for play, lovely flowers, plants and shade trees to relax and hang out. Whether you’re planting a garden, hosting summer barbecues on the deck, or just enjoying a quiet evening under the stars, this outdoor space is your private oasis.

And let’s talk about the detached garage! Currently set up as an office and hobby studio, it’s semi-finished and the ultimate spot to unleash your creativity or focus on work-from-home projects*. With this spacious lot, why not explore the exciting potential for expansion or an ADU (buyer to verify).

All of this is tucked away in a fantastic location—close to schools, parks, dining, local shops, and BART for easy commuting. It’s not just a house - it’s the lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of.
