Lovely and light in highly desirable Albany, this classic home is bursting with charm and thoughtful modern updates.

The spacious airy bedrooms and fresh bathrooms are all ready, and you'll love the surprise luminous upper-level family room and the flexible lower-level suite (bedroom and bathroom with its own entrance)--ideal for guests, work, or extended living. California Lifestyle is maximized, as the home opens to a sunny backyard deck and a serene fenced yard with artificial turf, irrigation for the plants, and productive fruit trees. Fully owned solar, and an EV fast-charging outlet. Extensively remodeled with permits in 2018, and newly refreshed for you in 2026- including refinished floors, new kitchen hardwood, reimagined landscaping plus new interior and exterior paint. Wonderful Albany location close to shops, dining, parks (Tot Lot is right down the street), and top-rated schools. WalkScore 89, BikeScore 99.
