Amazingly sunny, delightful and truly sweet house on a favorite street just a block & a half from Solano Ave. Vaulted ceilings in the living room with a wall of multi-pane windows and brightly refinished hardwood floors welcome you. The formal dining room charms with corner built-in hutches. Sunny eat-in kitchen has original freshly painted cabinetry. The two bedrooms each overlook the private rear garden, one them opens through double sliding dual pane doors onto a large deck. Interior staircase leads to the attached garage below and a full basement with several areas including plenty of storage, workshop area, washer/dryer and a finished room used by former owner as an office. Nearby you'll find all you need: shops, restaurants, coffee, Memorial Park with its play structures, picnic areas, tennis courts, fully enclosed dog park and more. This is a neighborhood where you see oodles of folks walking their dogs, strollers or just themselves. A keeper.
