Artful Spanish Revival Bungalow
Inspired living starts here! One of the most pleasant street scenes near the San Leandro/Oakland border provides the picture-perfect canvas for a bright and charming Spanish Revival bungalow. The 1,204 square-foot abode blends two bedrooms, one bath, plus a generously sized living room, dining room and kitchen. A breakfast room or office, stationed off the kitchen and made private by a sliding barn door, delights with light-filled windows and wainscoting. These authentic period details elevate the entire residence, from the hardwood floors throughout, to the rough-sawn beams and storybook slate/brick fireplace in the living room to the classic terracotta tile flooring and tongue-and-groove ceiling in the entry. The current owner lovingly restored this home with an artful blend of old and new. A modernized kitchen is a showcase with new countertops and stainless steel appliances. The refreshed bathroom feels bright and welcoming. New light fixtures make each space feel contemporary yet warm. Original touches, such as the hammered hinges on the front door, keep the house firmly rooted in the past. Living is made easy by unique floorplan features, such as the split-level bedroom that features the convenience of a laundry/utility room below. Colorful drought-resistant mature landscaping in the front yard creates instant curb appeal. The large backyard features lush tropical plants as well as fruit trees and raised planter beds with herbs and veggies. Relaxing comes naturally either on the lawn, sitting under a graceful olive tree, or lounging on the patio. A garden shed can also be used for additional storage and a multi-zoned irrigation system keeps the garden fresh. Parking won’t be an issue here at 109th Avenue, thanks to a long driveway with adequate space for several cars and access to the backyard. And, for the final finishing touch on this sweet bungalow? It is situated within easy commuting distance to San Francisco and downtown Oakland via 880, 580, BART, or Transbay Bus. Even Peninsula or Tri-Valley commuters will enjoy this prized address!
