On a delightful street, close to Mills College, this charming and whimsical, 2++ bedroom, Spanish-style bungalow, is overflowing with original architectural details. The owner, a highly creative person, has lovingly added their touch to the home, making it fun and unique. There is a lovely confluence of character and whimsy throughout. From the beautiful arched picture window and niches that flank the fireplace, to the leafy and Spring-inspired wallpaper in dining room. Details include a living room with gleaming hardwood floors, commanding fireplace and built-in niches, a formal dining room with fun wallpaper and an eat-in kitchen with new stove and hood (February 2025), newly refinished hardwood floors, freshly painted cabinets, built-in hutch and ironing board, stone countertops and newer refrigerator and disposal. The lower level offers two plus rooms. The owner used one room as a storage/laundry room and the second room as an entertainment room/office. Both rooms overlook the backyard. Additional amenities and improvements: newer Washer and Dryer, water heater, newly refinished hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, dining room and entry, new light fixtures throughout and updated electrical panel and all knob and tube wiring removed.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
