This soulful and charming family home awaits just up a short path from Montclair Village: framed by a towering pine in front and generously terraced outdoor spaces in back, it is fantastic for both living and entertaining. The floor plan is perfect: 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, plus a sun-drenched extra space on the second level, ideal as an office or cozy hangout. Upon entering from the generous front patio, you're immediately drawn to the spacious living room showcasing vistas of blue skies, camellias in bloom, and a partial view of the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance. There's a formal dining room with French doors to a deck overlooking the dreamy backyard. Also downstairs are a thoughtfully updated kitchen, a cute ½ bath with new decorative floor tiles, and an attached 2-car garage. Upstairs are 2 bedrooms (the master has 2 closets), which both have access to the sunroom, and a full bath sporting a stylish remodel with designer tiles and sparkling light fixtures. On the lower level is the 3rd bedroom with a brick fireplace, which would make a comfortable guest room or private home office with direct access to the spacious deck with charming cafe lights and the peaceful backyard. Close to Montclair Element., library, shops and restaurants.Short drive to Rockridge, BART to SF!
