About this home
Single Family · Built 1911 · Historic
This beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home blends modern style with classic charm while offering exciting opportunities for future expansion. The upstairs has been fully remodeled, showcasing refinished hardwood floors, a stunning new kitchen with breakfast bar and eat-in nook, and a modern updated bathroom. Original wood finishes and a built-in dining room cabinet add warmth and character. The full, high-ceiling basement offers incredible potential—whether for additional bedrooms and baths, a spacious family room, or even exploring duplex conversion. Outside, the deep, landscaped rear yard with a patio provides privacy and flexibility, with room to create a lush garden retreat, outdoor entertaining space, or to add an ADU. Practical amenities include a private one-car attached garage and driveway parking for a second car. Ideally located just blocks from MacArthur BART, freeway access, and the vibrant shops and restaurants of Telegraph Avenue, this home is move-in ready with space to grow.
