On El Cerrito's most coveted street sits the home that investors, developers, and handy homeowners alike have been waiting for. The little blue house with a big yard at 725 Pomona has been well-loved; seen generations of children grow up; and now is ready for a fresh face and new chapter. With peek-a-boo bay views, a long driveway, and spacious lot, it is ideally sited. Inside, warm wood ceilings and exposed beams greet you. Flooded with sunlight, and with hardwood floors throughout, it's easy to imagine how one might transform this sweet home. The cheerful yellow kitchen – with rotary phone! – overlooks the front garden. The efficient floor plans guides you easily to the two bedrooms, with darling wood paneling and potential abounding. A vintage bathroom sits off the hallway, darling and blushing in pink. Meanwhile, the detached garage might be a workshop, future ADU or more. This home – ready for your vision, ideally located in a beloved and valuable neighborhood – may just be that special deal that beautifully fits the bill.
