It has recently been cosmetically updated with new interior painting, luxury vinyl flooring and carpeting. Additionally, both the electrical and plumbing systems have been recently updated. The spacious light-filled living room has six sets of four-light windows offering views of the natural greenery just outside the entry. The living room has been freshly painted and features new carpeting. The carpeting extends from the living and dining area into the hallway that leads to all three bedrooms which are also carpeted. The kitchen has been recently painted and features new luxury vinyl flooring. It has a breakfast nook with two four-light casement windows opening to the bordering redwood trees. The kitchen door opens to both a large, terraced upsloping backyard for entertaining and the “workout room” for those who want their gym at home. The primary bedroom is on the upper level with its own bathroom. The laundry room is accessible from this bedroom with a door opening to the back yard. Downstairs, there are two more bedrooms (one has its own deck facing the Bay) and a central full bath.
