Panoramic Bay Views! This historic 3 bedroom 2 bath American cottage has views from the living room, two bedrooms and nearly all of the fully fenced outdoor spaces. Built by the Pecoraros in 1943, whose patriarch was a bricklayer, you’ll own a piece of Bay Area history. Enter from the sweet front porch into the living room which is grounded by a lovely stone fireplace. You’ll enjoy “the show” of sunsets overlooking Mt. Tam and beyond. Look left and you’ll see the tip of GG Bridge tucked behind Angel Island. The dining room and kitchen are supported by a scullery w/ built in storage and laundry area that has internal access to the garage. Down the hall, find a bath, two bedrooms and a primary bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom. Original oak flooring and other historic details merge w/ the upgrades that matter most. Newly established drought tolerant, biodiverse gardens blend with established roses, citrus, figs, olives, cherry and apple trees. This home has rewired electrical, a 200 amp main panel service, a newer roof, seismic retrofit, attic + wall insulation, double paned windows and solar. There’s a big workshop in the backyard + a sliding gate so that you can access the gear you’ll want to store there. Near parks, easy commutes. Move in and call it a day.
