There's a certain intimacy that only a well-loved single-story home can deliver, and 2001 Boynton Avenue has it in abundance. Built in 1943 and thoughtfully updated over the years, this charming 2-bed, 1-bath with a bonus basement sits on a quiet Martinez street, with an inviting front porch that sets the tone from the moment you arrive. Inside, feel surrounded by nature through the many windows. Consistent engineered-wood floors flow throughout a bright, sunlit living space anchored by a custom-built-in media center with an electric fireplace and a hand-carved oak mantel, a room that feels warm from the start. The updated eat-in kitchen features granite countertops, a gas range, newer cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a newly added dining nook with storage, and the original built-in butler's hutch. Generously sized bedrooms, one of which offers a walk-in closet, and the updated bath featuring a large glass-enclosed walk-in shower with a rain head and handheld, a bidet, and a window for natural light. The indoor laundry room with overhead cabinetry is just steps away and has its own back door to the yard. Step downstairs to a large bonus basement with endless potential as a workshop, hobby room, or finish for a future addition. Outside, a spacious covered paver patio with string lights is ideal for year-round entertaining, opening to a private, low-maintenance fenced backyard and detached garage with EV charging. An automatic electric driveway gate, updated electrical, tankless water heater, dual-pane windows, and central heat and AC round out the details. And the location? Martinez delivers the full package: waterfront access, a historic and walkable downtown, strong schools, and easy freeway and rail connections that make commuting a non-issue. Low maintenance, move-in ready, and a community worth putting down roots in. It's time to make this home your own!
