Description

Spacious and beautiful home with Bay Views and extensive gardens! The wonderful cul-de-sac location provides a walkway to the Arlington for easy access to the Solano Avenue shops and the SF express bus. The owners performed major foundation work, which created a large partially finished basement, which is not included in the sq. footage. It offers endless potential uses and opens to the extensive and beautifully landscaped yard with chicken coop and play spaces.
