This lovely cottage has 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a huge wraparound deck to take advantage of its relaxed country setting. The possibilities for the 8,050-square-foot lot are endless. The entrance and front deck are elevated above street level, enhancing the feeling that you're entering a rustic cabin among the trees. Inside this well-maintained home with charming period details, you will find a cozy living room with a wood fireplace and generous windows. The spacious kitchen has lots of warm, wood-faced cabinets that complement the tile floors. The bathroom is larger than you'd expect, and the primary bedroom features a slider that opens onto the deck. An attic offers extra storage space. The deck is the star of the property, stretching all the way around and accessed by sliders and French doors. It offers ample space for dining, a conversation pit, a container garden—you are limited only by your imagination. And there's lots of flat ground in the oversized yard for landscaping or outbuildings. A 2-car garage features additional storage. You may feel like you're in the country, but the neighborhood is close to shopping centers and major highways and less than a mile from K–12 schools. A quick drive gets you to Pinole Valley Park and Sobrante Ridge Regional Preserve.
