Property Description

An excellent opportunity for an owner occupant or investor, this stylish 2+BD/2BA bungalow with a new detached guest cottage is a Maxwell Park jewel. A Mediterranean garden and classic porch welcome you to the 1285 SQFT of space. Built in 1920, the lovely living room has a picture window of the garden, vintage fireplace and recessed ceiling. Gorgeous hardwood floors span into the dining room with charming built-in cabinets and sunny windows. The home’s two roomy bedrooms enjoy plenty of closet space and windows with green views. The spacious eat-in kitchen has a retro vibe, with a laundry area and breakfast nook where you can drink your morning coffee overlooking the backyard. From the kitchen, a backdoor opens down to the large patio for great indoor/outdoor living. Surrounded by mature landscaping and trees, the backyard has space to entertain, relax and play. A refurbished basement with separate entrance is flexible as an office, tinker space or artist studio. Down the long tandem driveway, the recently converted garage is a wonderful guest cottage complete with a full bath, kitchenette and French doors to its own private backyard. Commute options are closeby: BART, Highways 880, 13, and 580, and the East Bay Parks are just up the hill. This home is a gem!
