Well maintained by one owner for the past 37 years. Feels bigger than it is with well-defined spaces. Ample living room flows to genuine dining space & kitchen. Owner has done extensive work over the years including replacing knob & tube wiring, all stucco & sheathing. Garage offers itty-bitty extra room for an office or something more? Lovely mature oaks provide beautiful barricade from BART. Double-paned windows, remodeled kitchen, lovely yard spaces. Right next to BART path for easy biking/skating or walking to public transit. One block to Solano Ave. The heart of all things wonderful!
