About this home
This sprawling, fully remodeled 2,591-square-foot single-family residence features 5 spacious bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, offering the perfect blend of modern luxury and Bay Area convenience. Located just moments from Interstate 80, the Richmond Parkway, and the BART station, this property ensures a seamless daily commute whether you are heading into San Francisco, Oakland, or across the San Rafael Bridge. Step inside to find a turn-key interior boasting fresh paint and gorgeous new flooring, chef’s dream kitchen, completely updated with premium solid-surface countertops, a high-end gas cooktop, and a modern workstation sink. For ultimate relaxation, the oversized primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with its own cozy rock fireplace, complementing a second stunning rock fireplace that anchors the main living area. Beyond the main residence lies unparalleled financial opportunity. With a little creativity, the flexible floor plan can easily be split into two separate living spaces, allowing you to live in one half while generating substantial rental income from the other to offset your mortgage. Best of all, the sale includes an adjacent lot currently awaiting final county approval, giving you the rare freedom to expand your yard, build an additional unit, or sell it off later for a major future payout. Also has an extended driveway with a custom 2 car carport and loads of off-street parking. Work completed with permits and has been finaled by the City of Pinole Building Dept. Properties with this unique combination of space, commuter-friendly location, and massive investment potential rarely hit the Pinole market.

Nob Hill, located between San Pablo Avenue and Pinole Valley Road, is a residential and hillside Pinole neighborhood with curving streets and bay-facing viewpoints. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the San Pablo Avenue corridor near Appian Way, where taquerias, small groceries, and service storefronts set a steady, everyday rhythm. Housing reads as mid-century ranches and later hillside builds, with driveways, garages, and terraced yards shaping the streetscape. Pinole Valley Park frames the area with trailheads and open lawns that pull the landscape into daily routines. The Pinole Historical Society and Museum adds local texture, while nearby Pear Street Bistro and Tannery Bend Beerworks act as familiar community touchpoints. I-80 and the Pinole Creek corridor define the edges with a mix of movement and green relief.
