🌿 Lovely and Light in highly desirable Albany, a classic home with thoughtful modern updates. Lush front landscaping creates welcoming curb appeal, and inside, the warm and inviting layout feels both comfortable and easy to live in. The traditional floor plan offers a gracious living room, formal dining room, bright updated kitchen, airy bedrooms, and fresh bathrooms —plus a surprise luminous upper-level family room and a flexible lower-level suite (bedroom + bathroom with its own entrance).
🍽️ Extensively remodeled in 2018 with permits, the home features a beautifully updated kitchen centered around a big island with seating, tons of counter space, and storage - truly the heart of the home and a wonderful space to gather, create, entertain, and enjoy everyday life. The home’s living spaces are fresh and bright with abundant updates at every turn. The spacious finished family room is ideal for hanging out and playtime, and the guest suite adds so many possibilities.
☀️ The home flows naturally to a sunny backyard deck—perfect for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or unwinding at the end of the day. The private fenced yard is both serene and practical, with easy-care artificial turf, irrigation for flowers and plants, and several productive fruit trees that create a sweet garden setting for relaxing, playing, and puttering.
⚡ Additional upgrades include seismic work, updated plumbing and some electrical, energy-efficient lighting and appliances, refinished floors, newly installed kitchen hardwood (2026), and all new interior and exterior paint (2026). Fully owned solar panels and an EV fast-charging outlet add everyday convenience.
📍 With its blend of character, quality upgrades, and a super convenient Albany location close to shops, dining, parks (Tot Lot is right down the street!), and top-rated schools*, this special home offers comfort, style, and everyday ease. WalkScore® 89, BikeScore™ 99!
*Any interested parties should verify the school district and availability, as attendance and attending the closest school is not guaranteed.

about this
Neighborhood
∎
Residents of Albany enjoy convenient access to the Bay Bridge with a fraction of the population density found in San Francisco. Located just a few miles northwest of Berkeley, the real estate in Albany ranges from highrise, oceanview condos up to single family homes less than a mile from the Albany State Marine Reserve.
Albany's trifecta of entertainment, community, and access makes it one of the absolute best neighborhoods in the entire Bay Area. First, there is Solano Avenue, an amazingly well-kept Bay Area street with various amenities. Additionally, Albany provides easy access to the rest of the Bay Area. Bordering Berkeley, you've got quick access to CAL, and a quick commute to SF via BART and the Transbay Bus. Best of all, you're along the I-80 corridor, making this neighborhood more accessible to Lake Tahoe without any of the Bay Bridge Traffic and just a quick jaunt to Marin County over the Richmond Bridge. Interstate 80 and 580 run down the western border of Albany, which makes for an easy commute to and from Oakland, San Francisco, and several other Bay Area communities.
Albany is in the perfect location for undergraduate and graduate students. UC Berkeley is less than three miles away and can be easily accessed with a short ride on Route 52. Business school students and professors can walk or ride to the El Cerrito Plaza BART Station.
Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy the full slate of amenities offered at Albany Hill Park, like a brisk hike through the eucalyptus tree-lined trail with the occasional views of the San Francisco Bay. Or, residents can jump on the Bay Trail and enjoy incredible SF views while walking or biking.
If you're looking for entertainment and culture, Albany residents can find it all close to home.
