Just inside the front door you’ll find the first bedroom, which could also function as a great office or guest bedroom. The spacious living room is anchored by the gas-fueled fireplace, adorned with deep-sea blue Heath tiles. The main living space flows easily to the dining area, featuring a big bay window with peek-a-boo views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the bay, and into the recently updated kitchen featuring matching deep blue cabinets, waterfall quartz countertops, brass fixtures, a farmhouse porcelain sink with Grohe faucet, Bosch stainless cooktop, double ovens & dishwasher, and an LG stainless refrigerator.

Two well-proportioned bedrooms at the rear of the home complete the floor plan, one with a sliding glass door to the back yard, providing easy access to the huge 2-car garage, which awaits a new owner’s creativity: home gym, art studio, ADU…?
