This 2-bedroom/1.5 bath home is full of character and charm, complete with a versatile bonus room, extra storage space, and a truly special yard that feels like your own private natural park. The main level features an airy living space with vaulted, exposed-beam ceilings, polished hardwood floors, a red brick fireplace, and large windows that fill the home with abundant natural light. The layout flows seamlessly into a dining area marked by a brass pendant light, creating a central hub that connects to the kitchen and upper level via a classic wrought-iron staircase. Off the dining space, the functional kitchen offers warm butcher-block countertops, plenty of storage, and a deep sink with a gooseneck faucet. It comes equipped with an electric range, full-size refrigerator, and stainless steel dishwasher, along with direct access to the back deck. Step outside onto the raised wooden deck overlooking a lush, multi-level backyard filled with stone pathways, mature trees, and a flagstone patio. Below, stone steps wind through natural foliage to a small wooden footbridge crossing Cerrito Creek, which flows directly through the property. On the upper level, you'll find two bright bedrooms off a central hallway, both featuring hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and built-in closet space. Positioned between them is a spacious, charming vintage bathroom complete with a separate stall shower, a retro green bathtub, and a corner vanity with yellow and green tile details. The lower level adds valuable flexible space to the home, anchored by a versatile bonus room styled with warm wood wainscoting, a ceiling fan, and an attached half bath. Sliding glass doors open directly to the backyard, making it an ideal setup for a home office, creative studio, or guest space. Just off this room, a short flight of stairs leads to dedicated storage space, as well as access to the spacious attached single-car garage with a full-size washer and dryer. This location offers the perfect blend of a peaceful neighborhood feel with quick access to everyday conveniences. It's just blocks from the El Cerrito Plaza BART station, making commutes to San Francisco, Oakland, or Berkeley remarkably easy. You are minutes from Trader Joe's and Lucky in El Cerrito Plaza, a 5-minute drive from the great mix of local cafes and restaurants on Solano Ave, and close to the Kensington Sunday Farmers' Market. Outdoor enthusiasts will also love the nearby trails at the El Cerrito Hillside Natural Area and the paved Ohlone Greenway for walking, running, or cycling.
