    Get ready to fall in love with this charming single-story home featuring 3 bedrooms / 2 full bathrooms, nested in the family-friendly St. Jerome's neighborhood of El Cerrito. The street has a peaceful, almost secluded ambiance, lined with mature trees and has minimal thru traffic; yet it is located within a short walk to a BART station, the eclectic shopping district on Solano Ave, FatApple's Restaurant, and the Kensington Farmers' Market. Harding Elementary and El Cerrito High are within walking distance, and UC Berkeley is a short drive away. A lovingly designed yet low-maintenance, drought-resistant front yard. Step inside, and you are greeted with a thoughtful and well-designed layout with rooms that flow seamlessly. The living room has wide-plank wood flooring and plenty of natural light and is defined by a chic fireplace framed in onyx tile and a custom-built mantel. The bedrooms are secluded yet allow natural light. The master bedroom is connected to a private bathroom. Prepare your meals comfortably in the galley kitchen with energy-efficient appliances, granite countertops, and custom, full height, solid maple cabinetry. A breakfast nook is appended to the kitchen and contains an alcove with its own built-in work desk featuring granite countertops and cabinetry matching the kitchen. This space is air-conditioned with a multi-function Daikin heat pump unit, perfect for cooling or additional heating. The rear bedroom opens up to a redwood deck that overlooks the backyard with a mature Fuyu persimmon tree. The guest house in the backyard comes with a full bathroom and is well-appointed with a window, solid wood flooring, and ample storage space, making it perfect for visitors. Energy-efficient features of the home include solar panels on the roof, a tankless Bosch water heater, and all double-pane windows. Everything is anchored by a seismically reinforced foundation. This place truly offers the best of both worlds: a tranquil haven with unbeatable convenience. You really have to see it to appreciate all the charms!
