1127 Key Route Blvd in Albany is a charming 1927 single-family cottage in an excellent location. This home may be suitable for first-time buyers, downsizers, or investors seeking strong long-term value. Neighborhood precedent may allow for future upward expansion (potential buyers to verify). Just steps from Westbrae shops, dining, and parks. Both North Berkeley BART (1.1 miles) and El Cerrito Plaza BART (1.8 miles) are easily bikeable in approximately 8-12 minutes via the adjacent Ohlone Greenway. Whole Foods is approximately 0.5 miles away, or a quick 2-3 minute drive. Extensive foundation and circumferential drainage work were completed in 2025 with the benefit of fully finalized Albany city building permits.
