    What's special

    Detached garage
    Welcome to 1038 Ramona Avenue, a sweet Albany home set in the heart of it all, perfectly positioned between two worlds. Just steps from Marin School* and the beloved shops, cafes, and restaurants of Solano Avenue, including local favorites like Little Star Pizza, 5 Tacos and Beer, Zaytoon Mediterranean, and Oori Rice Triangles, this home also puts you minutes from the Gilman Street shops and the Fourth Street district in Berkeley. Whether you are headed toward Albany's charming Main Street corridor or Berkeley's bustling shopping and dining scene, everything you need is close by in either direction. Step inside, and the living room welcomes you with natural light that flows effortlessly into the formal dining room, all set atop newly refinished hardwood floors that run throughout. The sight line carries you from the front door all the way through to the backyard, giving the whole space an open, airy feel that makes it live even larger than its footprint. The kitchen has been completely updated with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, and the bathroom has been beautifully updated as well. Electrical, plumbing, and roof have all been updated, and the sewer lateral is compliant, so you can move in and simply enjoy it. Two bedrooms and one beautifully updated bathroom offer one level living with no stairs, ideal for downsizing or single story ease. A detached garage holds future potential for an ADU***, home office, workout space, or hangout spot, while the fully fenced backyard garden is perfect for entertaining and play. Plans for an addition have already been curated**, so the possibility of expanding into your forever home is ready and waiting. Getting around could not be easier. Enjoy a Walk Score of 82 and a Bike Score of 90, with easy access to the Ohlone Greenway, AC Transit, and Interstate 80. El Cerrito Plaza BART is just a short trip away for easy commutes to Berkeley, Oakland, and San Francisco. So many possibilities, so much charm, and a location that truly has it all. What more could you need? *Buyer to verify school availability, attendance is not guaranteed. **Architectural plans are included.
