Stunningly perfect 3BR, 2BA mid-century gem on a quiet cul-de-sac street in El Cerrito. Entering the gate through the private courtyard entry, this single-level home draws you in immediately with its central 1950s fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and glimpses of the spaces and yard beyond. Awaiting you is the light-filled eat-in kitchen with custom cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, marble + butcher-block counters and slider to the backyard for quintessential California indoor-outdoor living. Just off of the kitchen, a multi-purpose room for TV watching, hanging-out and laundry adds to the home's flexibility. Into the sleeping quarters, the spacious primary bedroom suite, accentuated by clerestory windows and walk-in closet, also features an ensuite bathroom with walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and a renovated hall bathroom are also off of the hallway. The level backyard has been thoughtfully redesigned with a patio for relaxing, grass area for play, and a detached studio for art, work and additional storage. The property is zoned for Madera Elementary, moments from BART (El Cerrito del Norte), and conveniently located near freeways, shops, cafes, UC Berkeley and world-class hiking.
