Get into El Cerrito for under $1M! Craftsman bungalow that delivers the character you've been dreaming about in a location you'll never want to leave. Stroll a few blocks to El Cerrito Plaza, sip and savor at Banter, dine at Juanita & Maude's, catch a film at the historic Cerrito Theater, and soak up everything this beloved neighborhood has to offer. With El Cerrito Plaza BART, quick freeway access, easy access to Hillside Natural Area and Wildcat Canyon and direct access to the Ohlone Greenway, plus San Francisco, Berkeley, and Oakland are effortlessly within reach. Step inside and let the light do the talking. Sunshine streams through an abundance of windows, dancing across gleaming hardwood floors, designer paint colors, and gorgeous original wood trim from the Craftsman era. The living room, showstopper dining room, and fun, updated kitchen flow seamlessly toward the back garden, creating an easy, light-filled rhythm that makes indoor-outdoor living second nature, whether you're hosting a holiday feast or enjoying a quiet morning coffee. 3 bedrooms offer one flexibility and space. The third bedroom opens directly to the garden, making it the perfect office, guest retreat, or hangout hideaway. The bathroom has been beautifully updated from top to bottom. Out back, the garden shines with two raised vegetable beds, a space to dine or hang out – s'mores anyone, yes, you have the space to make it happen! A detached one-car oversized garage complete with an additional room that acts now as the laundry area. Park your car, stash your prized possessions, or dream bigger and imagine relocating the laundry to create your own bonus casita. A long driveway adds off-street tandem parking for even more room. Slotted for Harding Elementary, where you can walk to school and enjoy your community. This home has it all. Here is your chance to plant roots in El Cerrito.
