Fabulous single level Eichler home in Castro Valley's coveted Greenridge neighborhood. This particular Eichler model was designed by mid-century modern legendary architect Claude Oakland, and one of the most popular models not only for it's design, but it's versatility and utility. The largest of the 4 bedroom Eichler homes in the development, and the first model with a separate laundry/utility room (that's ideal as a home office without using a bedroom), as well as a pantry in the kitchen. An excellent example of how Eichler homes evolved with the times and the needs of homeowners. There's a large enclosed atrium entrance that adds over 300 square feet of living space, and a remodeled kitchen with double oven, and a very rare 5 burner gas range because Eichler homes typically have electric kitchens. Other features include a gorgeous wood burning fireplace in excellent working condition, new wool carpeting in the bedrooms, multiple retractable skylights, updated lighting as well as original globe lights, and a massive 2 car attached garage of over 400 square feet. All situated on a large level corner lot of over 8,000 square feet with a very private new redwood fully fenced backyard, deck, irrigated garden and lawn, storage shed, and very large usable side yard.
