Charming Remodeled Retreat with Historic Red Barn This beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 3-bath home blends modern comfort with timeless character on a private, nearly one-acre lot. The kitchen, baths, flooring, and lighting have all been thoughtfully updated. The primary suite opens through French doors to a private patio—perfect for morning coffee. Two decks extend living outdoors: a side deck for sun-soaked lounging or games, and a spacious front deck for al fresco dining and sunset views. The crown jewel is the 1930s red barn—a rare find brimming with potential. Envision it as a garage, workshop, art or music studio, event space, ADU, or ultimate mancave—the possibilities are endless. Across the street is Cull Canyon Park, with hiking, fishing, and swimming practically at your doorstep. You’re also close to Lake Chabot Regional Park and Castro Valley Marketplace, a hub for fresh, sustainable groceries, wine, meats, and prepared foods. This property isn’t just a home—it’s a lifestyle, offering serenity, recreation, and unlimited potential.
