Set on a sunny and sprawling corner lot, this meticulous Spanish Mediterranean-style home offers a stunning blend of classic design and modern living. With its cream stucco exterior, light blue window trim, and distinctive red tile trim on the roof, the home radiates timeless elegance. 

The beautifully landscaped front yard wraps around the home and features a drought-tolerant design with sage, succulents, lavender, and colorful mature plants, all maintained by a complete irrigation system. A coral colored pathway leads past two front yard sitting areas to a welcoming ceramic tile porch, perfect for morning coffee and soaking in the lovely verdant vistas.
Step inside through a designer wood-finished front door and you’ll be greeted by light-filled living spaces. The airy living room boasts pristine windows overlooking the lush gardens, a cozy wood fireplace for toasty ambience, and beautiful wood floors that extend throughout the home. What a wonderful room for both quaint evenings or effervescent gatherings of friends!
The open-concept layout flows seamlessly into the dining area and continues into the fully remodeled kitchen. With every detail accounted for, the kitchen features granite countertops and a light blue glass tile backsplash that complement stainless-steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher and high-end BlueStar gas range ideal for any chef! The kitchen is flooded with natural light and windows. Close by find the front loading washer and dryer with folding area, making laundry days a breeze. True California living at its finest, the kitchen has french doors which lead to the backyard oasis.
Through a hallway door are two bright, sunlit bedrooms, each with ample closet space. Serving these rooms, the remodeled bathroom features a gorgeous mosaic of miniature blue and green tiles around the tub and sink area. The back bedroom also opens onto the spacious deck and backyard. The outdoor retreat includes a barbecue deck, a vibrant green flat lawn, and an ultra-sweet dining area beneath a trellis strung with bistro lights—outdoor gatherings and celebrations will be lovely and often. Raised planter beds for garden-to-table veggies, colorful perimeter flora, and tall, wispy trees complete the park-like atmosphere.
The one-car garage has been converted into a sleek detached office, providing privacy and a beautiful work setting and also provides separation of work and home life. This space can also operate as a maker’s space and has great potential for an ADU.The neighborhood is full of unique homes and tree-lined sidewalks for evening and weekend strolls. An array of amenities nearby such as La Farine Bakery, Peet’s Coffee, Farmer Joe’s Market, Bombera, and Grand Lake Kitchen. Dimond Park is also a wonderful asset to the community, complete with picnicking areas, hiking trails and a communal pool. Redwood and Joaquin Regional Parks encompass stately forests of 150-foot coast redwoods and provide miles of hiking, jogging, and horseback-riding trails. Anthony Chabot Regional Park offers golfing, an equestrian center, hiking, bicycling, and fishing. Chabot Science Center is also a favorite for outings!
