Floor-to-ceiling glass frames views of the Bay in a living room centered on a beautiful plaster + tile fireplace, under a wood-beam vaulted ceiling. A charming dining room leads directly to the level-in backyard patio, and a fresh kitchen with new stainless steel appliances lends itself to an ideal interior flow.

Last but not least, this home features a large two-car garage and multiple updates such as a new primary bathroom, furnace + AC installed in 2020.
