Loved and well cared for by its former owners with recent upgrades to the kitchen and bath make this abode ready for you to live in and enjoy. Upon entry you are immediately welcomed by the wall of windows looking out to the view of the bay, bridges, and the San Francisco and Oakland skylines.  The open floor plan makes this home perfect for entertaining and includes a living room with wide plank hardwood floors and a fireplace, dining area, and recently remodeled kitchen with new cherry cabinets, granite counters, tiled back-splash, and stainless steel appliances.  There are three bedrooms and one bath on the main level.  The master features a large window looking out to the bay/city views. One smaller bedroom is perfect for a home office or nursery.  The bath was also remodeled with permits and features a Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. The lower level features a large family room with a green-house window looking out to the back yard, a plus room with closets, and a bath and laundry area.  Possible Au-pair? The downstairs has a separate entry as well as interior stair access. The 2 car garage also has laundry hook-ups so you need never leave the main level.  The beautifully landscaped front yard has a patio area for possible barbeque and relaxation as does the back yard which also features a potting area and fruit trees.  Easy access to del Norte BART (just blocks away), Del Norte shopping areas, El Cerrito Plaza, parks, and schools (Madera Elementary) makes this an ideal location. Neighborhood Description El Cerrito was originally founded by refugees from the 1906 Earthquake and is now one of the Bay Area's best kept secret. With it's close proximity to San Franciso via 2 BART stops and the Casual Car Pool, Solano Avenue in Albany and Berkey for restaurants and shopping, and Wild Cat Canyon amoung many other parks and recreation areas, El Cerrito is a great place to call home. There is an incredible amount of desirable housing stock, much of which is in the hills while still being a short distance to public transportation and BART. Many of those hill homes offer the most spectacular views of the Bay, Bridges, Cities, and Mount Tamalpais that you will find anywhere in the Bay Area. El Cerrito is a friendly place and a manageable size. It has a wonderful new city Hall where you can go and speak to public officials and not feel like you are dealing with thousands of layers of buerocracy like you'd find in the larger cities nearby. There are some very good elementary schools where parental involvement is encouraged.
