1541 Merced St is a fully remodeled Richmond Annex gem where thoughtful design meets everyday comfort. Renovated with permits, this move-in ready home features a bright, open layout with updated flooring, recessed lighting, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The modern kitchen shines with sleek quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, energy-efficient appliances, and elegant gold finishes. The stylish bathroom offers double sinks and a split shower behind a sliding barn door. Both spacious bedrooms provide peaceful retreats with peek-a-boo views of the San Francisco skyline and Golden Gate Bridge. Other updates include a mini-split heating system and a tankless water heater for year-round efficiency. The private backyard is perfect for entertaining, gardening, or exploring ADU potential. Ideally located near El Cerrito BART, freeway access, well-regarded El Cerrito schools, and local favorites like Point Isabel, El Cerrito Natural Grocery, Ranch 99 mall, Costco, and the Farmers Market — this is East Bay living at its finest.
