Property Description
A charming updated 1930s cottage, perfectly placed to enjoy Redwood City - no car required. The peaked roof and white picket fence set a cheerful tone for the character within: original plasterwork, restored hardwood floors, and vintage phone nooks telling the story of a home loved for almost a century. The appx. 1050 sq ft two-bedroom, one-bath layout is cozy and bright, with afternoon light pouring into the living and dining rooms. The front yard features raised garden boxes and mature peach, apricot, and lemon trees, while the quiet backyard patio is perfect for summer barbecues and outdoor dining. Huge lot with dual access from the front and back alley. A detached appx. 550 sq ft one-bedroom, one-bath ADU with separate automatic gated entrance, garage, laundry, and utilities offers flexibility as a guest suite, home office, or rental opportunity. Generous parking for four or more cars, upgraded electrical service for EV charging, and smart tankless water heater round out the practical upgrades. The lifestyle is the real draw: effortless access to Redwood Citys vibrant events, Caltrain, shopping, and dining - right outside your door.
