A rare opportunity to purchase a home from the family that built it. Now it is ready to welcome new owners and its next set of memories.
The home offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom across 1,360 square feet, set on a 5,000 square foot lot. Inside, recent updates including fresh interior paint, updated fixtures, and refinished and new hardwood floors throughout give the home a bright, move-in ready feel while still leaving room to make it your own.
Outside, a beautifully landscaped backyard centers on a wooden deck, the kind of space built for a quiet morning coffee or a full evening with friends. The lot size and layout offer real flexibility for a future addition or a full renovation. Location is where this property shines. You're close to Burton Park, downtown San Carlos dining and shopping, and easy access to commute routes, all within a neighborhood known for its walkability and small-town feel. Highly rated San Carlos schools are nearby; buyer to independently verify current enrollment and boundaries.
Solid bones. Thoughtful updates. A location that does not come up often. 1945 Birch Avenue is a genuine opportunity to put down roots in one of the Peninsula's most desirable communities.
