Property Details

Description

Just steps from beloved Terrace Park and three blocks to Solano Avenue, this 1930 Mediterranean bungalow in Albany Terrace has been lovingly held by one family for nearly three decades. Natural light fills every room, flowing over refinished hardwood floors that ground the home with warmth and character. Two bedrooms line the main level alongside a renovated bath with floor-to-ceiling tile and a Marc Newsom pedestal sink, that the sellers found it very hard to part with. At the center of it all, the thoughtfully updated kitchen gathers everyone around a generous island with cast concrete countertops, microcement backsplash, and new gas range. Sliding glass doors open to a deck overlooking a modern garden with smooth concrete terrace and lush plantings. The primary suite rises above it all—a treehouse-like retreat with views of the hills, Terrace Park, and peekaboo glimpses of the Bay and San Francisco. A quiet alcove serves as office, reading nook, or nursery, while the spa-inspired bath features a Hansgrohe multi-jet shower and floating sink. A private guest suite with separate entrance offers income potential or flexible living. Solar panels, tankless water heater, and 2-car tandem garage with workshop complete the picture. Near Marin Elementary and Albany's celebrated schools.
