* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is new construction or fully renovated.
Although built in 1939, the home has undergone a high-quality recent renovation. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinetry, stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The bathroom is fully updated with contemporary fixtures. The inclusion of central AC and the mention of all systems being in good working order, combined with the mint condition of the hardwood floors and double-paned windows, qualifies this as move-in ready/excellent condition.
This 1939 cottage is exceptionally well-maintained with updated systems and rare Central AC, offering immediate comfort and single-level living without the need for initial renovations.
The property features a large, fully fenced backyard with vegetable beds and a detached two-car garage, providing excellent storage and hobby space that is rare for a home of this size.
Situated in a historic, tree-lined community, the home offers a peaceful neighborhood atmosphere with easy access to parks, nature trails, and major commuter routes including BART.
With only two bedrooms and a single bathroom across 1,074 square feet, the home's footprint may be restrictive for growing families or buyers requiring a dedicated home office.
Several assigned schools, particularly at the middle and high school levels, carry lower ratings (2-5), which may be a concern for education-focused buyers and impact long-term resale value.
Light-filled and move-in ready, this charming two-bedroom cottage offers easy single-level living. The open living room centers around a wood-burning brick fireplace, while double-paned windows bring in abundant natural light. The well-appointed kitchen overlooks the large backyard and includes a pantry and convenient laundry room. An updated bath serves the two nice size bedrooms. All systems are in good working order, making this a home you can enjoy from day one. The spacious, fully fenced backyard features vegetable beds, room to play, garden, and relax. A detached two-car garage offers excellent space for projects and storage, complemented by a gated driveway. Central AC keeps things comfortable in summer. Sheffield Village is a special, historic community with a true neighborhood feel with block parties and festivities year round. Tree-lined streets, parks, tennis courts, and nearby nature trails create a peaceful setting with a strong sense of place, blocks to shops, Zocalo Coffeehouse and dining at Paradiso. San Leandro BART for an easy commute. And close to top notch San Leandro Schools.
