Property Description
It's time for this Storybook home to turn the page to its next chapter. A jewel-box ready to house the treasured memories of your saga, this spacious oasis is spread across three stories with cozy nooks and crannies at every turn, and is sure to leave you enchanted*. Amenities include updated electric throughout, a heat pump system providing heat and AC on every level, a new (2026) chef's range anchoring the perfect kitchen triangle, a soak tub with a window and serene view for when you need to decompress, and a walk-in shower for when you need a quick clean. Whatever your needs, you won't have to sacrifice comfort to enjoy the timeless charm. Classic design touches like hardwood floors, ample closets and built-in storage throughout, and windows everywhere connecting you to the lush surroundings while still maintaining your privacy. The reading/sleeping nook in the primary bedroom is big enough for a mattress for naps or to stargaze as you daze off at night. Or it could be a home office for ultimate work from home comfort with a huge window connecting you out to green trees and blue sky, your co-workers will think your actual camera footage is a filter. Two-story unfinished garage and storage underneath provide ample plus space and possibilities for expansion (ADU?)**. Ample yard space on this plus-sized lot maximizes indoor/outdoor flow and connection with a front patio, back deck, and flat space in the back that's a blank canvas awaiting your vision. Tucked away yet easily accessible with three different entry points, you can choose to access the front door via minimal steps from multiple angles. With Thrornhill Elementary just blocks away, Monclair Village and Redwood Regional Park so close, and access to the 13 and the 24 so easy, you can quickly connect to everything the Bay has to offer while still being able to disconnect from it all behind the walls of your castle. Don't miss this chance to make your happily ever afters come true! *Actual magic not guaranteed, Buyer to consult their own wizard. **Buyer to investigate. ***Bed count differs. Buyer to investigate.
