A deck you'll use and live on, a surprisingly spacious fenced garden that is private. Bright inviting kitchen with plentiful cabinets and new caesar stone counters. Formal dining with china closet and vaulted ceilings. The living room is so lovely: high vaulted ceilings, fireplace and adjacent den or library. The master bedroom features the same fab high ceilings and more insulated double french doors onto the spacious deck. A storage shed provides extra storage and a large driveway provides parking. Nearby Tilden Park offers a multitude of pathways, a lake to swim in, a vintage carousel to ride on and a little animal farm to boot; it's a wonderland outside your door. AND then there's a nearby little neighborhood park where folks actually gather to talk and share dog time, kids playtime and stories.
