This charming bungalow is a rare hidden gem with big views of San Francisco and an expansive level backyard. Originally built in 1925 as a hunting cabin, this two bedroom, one bath cottage is rich with a rustic farmhouse vibe, large view deck, refinished hardwood floors, brand new kitchen, and refreshed bath. Vaulted open beamed ceilings and kitchen skylight create an airy and open vacation home feeling. On delightful Merriewood Drive, the generous 5,940 square foot lot is mostly level with easy access through the backyard from the parking area on the private lane behind. Laundry/Mud room and outdoor storage shed add convenience to this delightful package. Location, location, location...you are just a hop, skip and a jump to Yarrow Nursery, esteemed Thornhill Elementary and under a mile to Montclair Village with its fabulous shopping, dining and weekend farmers market. Easy access to Hwy 13 and 24 take you either direction for an easy commute to just about anywhere! But take note.... you may never want to leave this special property.
