This stately Arts & Crafts era 2 story home perched majestically above the street is awaiting your restoration to its original beauty with you choosing your own finishes and fixtures. It's well worth the effort with a huge value upside that a spacious home with level yard close to a thriving shopping district has to offer. It's a fantastic opportunity to affordably get into a great neighborhood and make this your dream home. The covered front porch welcomes you to this generously sized 1,839+ sqft 3 bed 2 bath home. All bedrooms are on one level and there's a bonus attic space for hobbies, office or quiet retreat. The entry, living room and formal dining room enjoy oak hardwood floors and plenty of window line. An open kitchen leads to both the informal breakfast room with gas fireplace insert and to French doors to a newer wood deck and sunny level yard. The beautifully mature landscaping just needs your care to create a wonderful entertaining and play space with plenty of room for a veggie garden. With an “89 Walkscore” you're just blocks from Piedmont Ave shops, restaurants, cafes, parks, Kaiser, BART, Transbay bus to SF and freeways.
