About this home

Step into a 1920s bungalow tucked inside one of El Cerrito's most beloved historic pockets, just a few blocks' wander from Tassajara Park. For generations, this corner of town has drawn artists, avid gardeners, academics, and makers; that creative spark is something you feel the moment you arrive. Two sunny bedrooms gaze out over a wraparound garden where lawn, flowers, and mature plantings have settled into their peaceful surroundings. Inside, the home practically hums with light: fresh paint, refinished hardwood floors, new fixtures overhead, and a color palette that feels playful and inspired. The kitchen and bath have been given a loving refresh, dressed in beautiful Heath and Zia tile, with updated countertops, and brand-new appliances ready for their first home-cooked meal. And the work you can't see is already handled: a fully permitted electrical rewire, a 200-amp panel, and seismic upgrades - so the romance of an older house comes without the worry. Out back, professionally...
