Great updates abound in this contemporary cottage-style home! A white picket fence surrounds your front lawn, overlooked by an oversized front porch. The well-organized layout feels surprisingly spacious, with gorgeous hardwood floors throughout. The living area includes large windows with a view of the front yard. The kitchen features modern updates, a dining area, and lovely natural light. Two bedrooms flank a short hall, each with quick access to the roomy full bath. Attached garage includes laundry and interior access to the home; a bonus storage room is accessible from the rear yard. Newer central A/C, too! The generous 5,000 square foot lot provides lots of room to grow and play! The rear yard features a new paver patio, mature pear tree, and refreshed landscaping. Located just minutes from public transit, freeway access, and shops in Richmond, El Cerrito, and beyond. Down the street is the Tiller Park playground, and hiking in Wildcat Canyon is a short trip away.
