Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1979, this 47-year-old townhouse is described as functional and charming but lacks any mention of recent renovations to the kitchen, bathrooms, or major systems. Given the age and the 'functional' description, the property is likely dated and will require cosmetic updates and minor repairs to meet modern standards.
The floor plan features 2.5 bathrooms for just two bedrooms, including a dedicated primary suite, providing a level of privacy and convenience that is highly desirable for roommates or small families.
Unlike many townhomes that rely on street parking, this unit includes both a private attached garage and access to a designated overflow parking lot, offering significant added value and security.
Ideally situated near Contra Costa College and major transit routes, the property offers excellent accessibility for students and professionals, bolstering its long-term rental and resale appeal.
The $540 monthly association fee is substantial relative to the list price, which may strain the budget of first-time buyers and impact overall mortgage qualification.
The property is zoned for schools with lower academic ratings, particularly the middle school rated at 2/10, which may deter families prioritizing high-performing educational districts.
Welcome to this charming two-story townhouse at 2585 El Portal Dr, Unit C in San Pablo, featuring 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms with both bedrooms located upstairs, including a primary suite with its own full bath.

Enjoy the convenience of in-unit laundry, a functional layout designed for comfortable living, your own attached garage, and additional overflow parking in a designated lot. Ideally located near Contra Costa College, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes, this home is perfect for first-time buyers.
