    What's special

    A sanctuary in the hills! The views of San Francisco on this street are amazing. Hidden behind a beautiful wisteria-covered fence and gate, the roof line barely visible, it is easy to pass 474 Michigan. But behind the gate is a garden sanctuary with a patio and stone benches inviting you to relax, contemplate and enjoy the surroundings. A charming yellow Monterey-style colonial house is nestled at the bottom of the hill, warm lights welcoming. It's close to Tilden Park, Kensington Village businesses, several bus lines and a short drive to BART. This home has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 2,043 square feet of living space. Several bonus rooms can be used flexibly. The second-floor balcony with Italian tiles is a great place to soak in the sun, and listen and watch happenings in the inspiring garden. The bay view from the bedroom and street... the creek at the very bottom of the property... the family of deer that hangs out in back.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
