Amazing opportunity to own and build on a fabulous and secluded sunny lot – in the sought after “Poets Corner” neighborhood of Pleasant Hill. Currently there is an older home and 3 separate garages on the property. Gas, electric, water, and sewer are all intact. Long driveway for the home is set off from Boyd Road. Rear portion of the lot faces south and gets plenty of natural light. The property is adjacent to many schools such as Pleasant Hill/Strandwood/Sequoia Elementary Schools, Sequoia Middle School and College Park High School. Plus, the huge 16.5 acre Pleasant Hill Park is close-by. Downtown and freeway access are super convenient from 520 Boyd Road as is the Contra Costa Canal Trail system. So, bring your imagination and your toolbelt to this gem of a spot! Open for broker and public showing 5/16, 10:30 am 1:00 pm. The virtual renovation is computer-generated - buyer must conduct their own investigation and rely solely on that investigation.
