ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Virtually level-in, this spacious 1960s-era 3-bedroom, 2-bath home emanates Mid-Century Modern style even before you step inside. Recessed lighting and gorgeous random-plank hardwood floors guide you through the large, light-filled living room, past a stately brick fireplace, and into the dining room, where sliding glass doors open onto a private patio retreat complete with an outdoor wood-fired grill. The generous kitchen connects with the dining room for an easy entertaining flow, and features a breakfast bar, quartz countertops, and abundant storage. Black-clad Marvin windows set off the warm wood details throughout the home and help keep the temperature comfortable year-round. Down the hall, you'll find three well-sized bedrooms, including a primary suite with en-suite bath and a cedar-lined walk-in closet, a separate laundry room, and a hall bath with dual sinks and a few preserved 1960s details. Out front, an impressive drought-tolerant garden designed and installed by Farallon Gardens five years ago has been meticulously maintained ever since and will stop you in your tracks. The care and love poured into this home are evident at every turn. To top it off, the location can't be beat: just under half a mile to Del Norte BART, a short stint farther to Los Moles Beer Garden, and close to the Canyon Trails tennis courts and the Skyline National Trail in Wildcat Canyon. Restaurants, transit, and outdoor adventure, all in equal measure.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

It's rare to find a home that truly checks every box, and 811 Lexington Avenue does. Just blocks from El Cerrito Plaza BART and easy public transit, this single level home puts you within a short stroll of El Cerrito Natural Grocery, The Annex, Banter, the Cerrito Theater, El Cerrito Plaza, and so much more. Morning coffee, a quick grocery run, dinner and a movie: it's all right around the corner. From the street, you'd never guess how much space waits inside. The sellers reimagined the kitchen with a thoughtful, design forward eye, and the open concept layout flows effortlessly from kitchen to dining to living, creating a true entertaining space for everyday living and hosting alike. Quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and an abundance of cabinetry give you room to really cook and host, while the generous center island works as a prep station, a gathering spot for friends and family, or a quiet place to catch up on work. The home offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a bedroom designed as a home office or kids' zone. At the heart of the home, a family room brings everything together for game night, Sunday football, or cheering on the Valkyries. Tucked away at the back of the home, the primary suite is a true retreat with ample privacy, featuring an oversized walk in closet and a beautiful en suite bath. Everything lives on one level, with just a single step at the entry and direct access from the garage. A laundry room right off the kitchen doubles as a mudroom from the backyard, so you can drop everything, close the door, and keep the rest of the home tidy. Thoughtful, practical design shows up in every corner. And the backyard? It's a dream. Flat, spacious, and fully fenced for privacy, it's ready for kicking a ball, soaking up the sun, weekend barbecues, or giving your favorite pup room to roam. Did we mention the outdoor sauna and shower? Your own private wellness escape, just steps from the back door. Beneath the home, the sellers have already done the heavy lifting with a French drain, sewer lateral compliance, seismic upgrades, and more, plus generous storage underneath for bikes, gear, and everything in between. The work is done, so all that's left for you is to move in and enjoy. Walkable, thoughtfully updated, move in ready, and loved by sellers who cared for every detail, this is the one you've been waiting for.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

This 1941 updated bungalow delivers a spacious two-bedroom main house, a fantastic permitted 2023 ADU, and flexibility that keeps on giving. Solid construction details include graceful archways, random-plank wood floors in the living room, and touches of mosaic artistry from the former owner. The main house has two bedrooms and one bath. A generous formal dining room opens to the yard and a spacious kitchen suited to everyday cooking or entertaining. A park-like backyard, ample patio and deck space, and direct outdoor access from all three bedrooms (house and ADU) make indoor-outdoor living easy. One can easily imagine a large gathering or garden party in the surrounding yard. Exceptional stewardship over the years has resulted in thoughtful modern updates. The home has had major improvements, including foundation strengthening and piers, and updated electrical. The timeless kitchen was updated with granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and new tile flooring. Refinished floors and a newly painted interior keep the house feeling fresh and inviting. The 2023-built cottage-style ADU presents in brand-new condition. It includes a full kitchen, full bath, and the ability to curtain off a separate bedroom. Its modern construction includes a mini-split heat pump for energy-efficient heating and air-conditioning, making it an especially flexible space for rental income, visiting guests, or multigenerational living. The property also offers abundant off-street parking, with a long driveway and a substantial concrete pad on both sides of the house that provides additional patio space to entertain. This space could also accommodate additional storage sheds without intrusion into the beautiful backyard. The flexibility of a permitted ADU is like Shel Silverstein’s “The Giving Tree.” It can change and grow with its owners. It can make first-time homeownership more affordable, because rental income from the ADU can help with the mortgage payments. That fresh start can grow into a dream space for the future. Imagine taking back the space as your own studio or home office. Or welcome visiting friends without putting them under your roof. Parents or grandparents can have their own nearby household. It can then give adult children a safety net or a place to launch. It can even be a comfortable home for an on-site caregiver. Conveniently located near El Cerrito Plaza, BART, shopping, and dining.
