This sweet, cottage-style, level-in 2 bed/1 bath feels like something out of a children’s storybook—offering a happy, simple life! The sunny living room with warm wood floors flows to the dining space with a skylight. And the charming kitchen with a bright green countertop and orange accent cabinet set amongst stainless steel appliances, are sure to delight. Two bedrooms look out to the backyard and share a bathroom with crisp white tile and built-in storage cabinets. Just off the dining area is a laundry room with a washer and dryer and more storage cabinets. And what was formerly the garage has been enclosed to be used as you wish—maybe an office, workout/yoga room, or art studio. The fully-fenced backyard offers a lush wall of bamboo, rose bushes, a lemon tree and two storage sheds. Adding to its storybook charm are front yard planter boxes, a Little Library, with grownup and kid-level bookshelves, and the nearby summertime Crop Swap--all connecting you with friendly neighbors. The petite size makes it easy to maintain and the location offers car-free convenience. Just a hop and a skip bring you to schools, parks, the library, El Cerrito Plaza, BART, Trader Joe’s, restaurants, Rialto Theater, Farmer’s Market and easy freeway access. Goldilocks says this one is Just Right!
