Welcome to this inviting single-family home at 1229 Scott Street. Be the proud second owner of this residence, built by a skilled carpenter who collaborated with R.E. Meadows, a distinguished El Cerrito developer behind about 400 local homes. With 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,436 square feet of living space per records, it offers ample room for you. Inside, natural light fills the rooms, creating a warm ambiance. Refinished hardwood floors add elegance, and the living room's floor-to-ceiling window overlooks the serene Japanese garden. The outside deck is a highlight, perfect for relaxation. The kitchen, updated in 2023, features new countertops, faucet, and sink. Downstairs, an interior-access space with sliding glass doors leads to the landscaped backyard with mature Japanese-style plantings and a patio. Additional features include a fireplace, a new 2023 roof, and a basement workbench. A two-car garage provides ample parking.
