947 Talbot Avenue welcomes you with charm right at the door. This thoughtfully renovated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath California bungalow captures classic craftsman character and delivers true turnkey comfort. The open living and dining room flows effortlessly for entertaining, with natural light and hardwood floors throughout. The eat-in kitchen is every chef’s dream: a BlueStar Culinary Series gas range, stainless steel appliances, soft-close drawers, and serene finishes make it the heart of the home. Three spacious bedrooms and a large bathroom round out the space, plus a laundry area, half bath, and yard access for indoor-outdoor entertaining. Fresh paint and freshly landscaped yards give the home a crisp, polished feel, ready for end-of-summer get-togethers, with a new driveway fence for privacy. The oversized garage workshop opens the door to future possibilities: an ADU, home gym, office, or dream space for the craftsman or car lover. Care was taken at every turn, right down to what’s behind the walls, making this a truly solid, move-in-ready home. It sits half a block from Solano Avenue, with its coffee shops, restaurants, and classic Albany charm, and steps from Albany’s top-ranked schools. Easy access to BART and Highways 580 and 80 for a smooth commute into the City.
