About This Property

Striking 4BD/2.5BA contemporary home tucked away on a sought after El Cerrito cul-de-sac with unobstructed, panoramic Bay views. The main level offers an airy open floor plan with high ceilings, clerestory windows, and a spacious living room anchored by a central fireplace. A chef's kitchen connects seamlessly to the dining room and opens to a private deck, ideal for BBQs, sunset cocktails, and lingering afternoons. The lower level features a serene primary suite with a spa-like bath complete with heated floors, floating vanity, and a custom walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and a dedicated laundry room complete this floor. A large flex space with storage can be used as a fourth bedroom or den. At the bottom of the property, a separate-entry office or studio offers excellent work-from-home or creative potential. An attached two-car garage with built-in storage adds everyday convenience. Upgrades include owned solar, a new roof in 2025, and expanded front deck. Ideally located near Madera Elementary, AC Transit, BART, and El Cerrito's parks and open spaces.
