The handsomely updated home, with its rich wooden colors and soft white walls, provides a warm and inviting setting for both homeowners and guests. Located in the Richmond Annex, at 1558 Mariposa Street, it offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in approximately 1237 sf of living space.
Well located in the East Bay, it is close to the many restaurants and shopping venues of El Cerrito and Albany. It's just 1 1/2 mile to El Cerrito Plaza and BART.
A distinctive entrance offers generous space for a large entry chest and display space, while the golden oak stairs to the right lead to the second floor.
Immediately adjacent to the living area, and perfectly placed, is the updated kitchen space. The quartz topped island/counter space is highly effective as an eat in breakfast bar, but can easily function as a buffet counter when entertaining.
This gleaming updated kitchen furnishes stainless steel appliances. Amenities include a stone counter, dishwasher, gas range/cooktop and refrigerator.
Just off the kitchen, a large glass door opens to the side walkway and backyard.
A few steps further down the hall that is seen above, one of the two lower bedrooms has been effectively converted into a comfortably sized office space.
If this bedroom space is not needed as a bedroom, other options include a music room, play room, or workout space. Its sliding glass door provides easy access to the gardens just outside.
The upstairs floor features this impressive master bedroom suite with two sets of large windows with views of San Francisco. The size of the space invites a variety of imaginative design concepts for its use. It also has a desirable walk in closet.
The very spacious master bathroom has been beautifully renewed to include a double vanity with multiple drawers for storage that is topped with a well lit, full length, overhead mirror. A generously sized shower completes the appeal.
A delightful rear garden awaits just outside the back doors of the home. While established, it still furnishes multiple opportunities to plant a favorite variety of vegetables and flowers.
The steps to the right lead up to a charming seating area that is perfect for a picnic, luncheon, or special holiday party.
This upstairs deck is also just as easily utilized as a private retreat on pleasant afternoons or quiet weekend mornings.
If this very pleasant home, or another in the area, is of interest to you, I encourage you to call me promptly at (510) 517-6280. The residence is being offered for sale for $799.000.
