Inside, the remodeled kitchen and bathroom offer timeless style, while the combination living/dining room opens through French doors to a level private garden that extends daily living outdoors. The home boasts an ideal layout with three bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms all on one level. Well-maintained over the years with many thoughtful upgrades—including central air conditioning, a 200-amp electrical panel, seismic retrofitting, and a roof replaced just six years ago. The two-car attached garage with interior access is paired with a versatile utility area that offers ample storage and flexibility to meet modern needs. Convenient to the natural beauty of Tilden Park’s trails and open spaces, and close to the shops and cafés along Arlington Avenue, this home balances views, quality improvements, and a setting that connects to both nature and community. Bed count differs. Buyer to investigate.
