This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath bungalow feels like home from the moment you arrive. Original hardwood floors and a thoughtfully remodeled kitchen and bath create a cozy, welcoming space with garden views. The converted garage* offers a versatile bonus room perfect for an office, studio, or guest space. A detached garden office* provides a peaceful retreat for work or creativity. Upgrades include energy-efficient double-paned vinyl windows and sliding glass door, copper plumbing, updated heating, a seismic retrofit, and a compliant sewer lateral for peace of mind. Step outside to a large split-level deck where you can take in beautiful Oakland Hills views. The sunny backyard is a gardener’s delight with mature fruit trees—apricot, avocado, pomegranate, lemon, orange, and apple—and raised beds bursting with herbs and vegetables like strawberries, tomatoes, rosemary, sage, and lemon balm. Drought-tolerant landscaping with fragrant lavender welcomes you at the front. Close to 580 freeway, parks, and trails, this home offers a serene, grounded lifestyle. *Buyer to investigate.
