50 Western Dr, Point Richmond, CA 94801

Property Description

Oozing with charm & vintage details this cozy 1937 cottage is a rare offering. Tucked behind a brick path that rises from Western Dr, this 1,470 s/f home with views of the Bay feels like a retreat above the street. Two bedrooms and two baths are arranged on split levels throughout a home filled with light, natural vistas and irresistible character. The home is set on a street-to-street lot in the heart of historic Point Richmond. Inside, the family room anchors the home with a decorative fireplace adorned with a custom copper hearth, along with divided windows and french doors that open to a full-length deck overlooking the Bay vistas - the perfect space for morning coffee or an evening wind-down. An arched doorway connects the combined dining and family room to the kitchen, filled with light from a glass roof and framed by natural wood beams. Quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and abundant storage complete the space with views to the terraced gardens behind the house. A few steps up from the family room is a private bedroom with double closets, a view of the Bay, and a separate full bath lit from above by a skylight that keeps the space bright. Wood floors run throughout the upper levels. Downstairs, the primary suite takes up the entire level - a quiet retreat with delightful views, tile floors and french doors opening the garden, shaded by a mature cypress tree and surrounded by plantings. Within earshot of the rolling waves from Keller Beach this space has an easy indoor-outdoor flow. Plenty of storage plus a spacious, luxurious bath complete the suite, with a dual-head shower and a clawfoot soaking tub perfectly positioned to take in the views. Laundry is conveniently tucked in on this level as well. Out back and situated at the street level above, a detached structure adds flexible space, ready to serve as a home office or workout studio - or easily converted back to its original use as a garage. Hike right from home at the Miller-Knox trails a few houses down at the end of Belvedere Ave. Minutes from the ferry to San Francisco with easy access to Marin, Berkeley, Napa and Tahoe. Parks, beach, kayaking, hiking and biking trails right from your doorstep all in the friendly, eclectic and inclusive community of Pt Richmond.
