Surrounded by rolling hills, open space, and scenic ridgelines, this beautifully updated four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home is truly a standout. Privately set back from the street, it offers exceptional curb appeal and an unforgettable first impression from the moment you arrive.
The main level showcases an open-concept floor plan with soaring ceilings and expansive windows that flood the home with natural light while framing breathtaking views of the Bay, Marin County, and majestic Mount Tamalpais. Bamboo flooring flows throughout the lower level, where the spacious living room seamlessly connects to the formal dining area.

The remodeled kitchen features modern gray cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a convenient breakfast bar. It opens to the inviting family room, anchored by a cozy fireplace and custom built-in cabinetry ideal for a wine bar, coffee station, or additional storage. A stylishly remodeled powder room and generous storage closet complete the main level.
Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and two beautifully remodeled bathrooms. Wide-plank flooring extends throughout the upper level. The primary suite features a striking paneled accent wall, while the spa-inspired primary bathroom showcases elegant marble finishes, designer tile flooring, a soaking tub, and a beautifully detailed mosaic niche within the shower.
Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, the home offers exceptional outdoor spaces, including an expansive 600-square-foot view deck and a large front courtyard perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or outdoor play. Freshly painted stairs lead to the lower yard, offering ample space for gardening, recreation, or the possibility of a future pool. Additional highlights include a two-car garage and extra parking for multiple vehicles, recreational equipment, or a boat.
Residents of May Valley enjoy easy access to hiking, biking, and nature trails, including nearby Kennedy Grove Regional Recreation Area and Wildcat Canyon Regional Park, making it an ideal location for outdoor enthusiasts. This peaceful hillside setting offers a rare sense of privacy and retreat while remaining conveniently close to shopping, dining, BART, and major commuter routes serving Oakland, Marin, and San Francisco.

El Sobrante is a small Bay Area town located in Contra Costa County, approximately 20 miles from the heart of San Francisco.
Tri-level homes built in the 1930s and fully-renovated 1940s bungalows exemplify the real estate you'll find here. Residents enjoy scenic mountain views, convenient access to beaches and public parks. If you're looking for a scenic, peaceful town away from crowded Bay Area cities, El Sobrante may be a wonderful place to call home.
Pointe Pinole Regional Shoreline is a 2,300+ acre oceanside park located in nearby Richmond, just a 15-minute drive from El Sobrante. The park features scenic ocean views and plenty of outdoor activities. Horseback riding and biking are popular at Pointe Pinole, but the true draw is its fishing pier. Fishing here doesn't require a license, and a shuttle bus provides convenient transportation. After exploring this incredible shoreline, residents can enjoy spectacular sunsets before heading home.
Most of El Sobrante's retail establishments can be found in the southwest section of town, near San Pablo. You'll find various shops and local dining options in this area.
Although El Sobrante is tucked away from Berkeley, Oakland, and San Francisco, public transportation is readily available. AC Transit Route provides service to the Richmond BART Station, making commuting convenient. Another advantage is its easy access to Interstate 80, which facilitates travel to San Francisco in less than an hour.
