Cleveland Heights

Tastefully restored craftsman in Cleveland Heights with two bedrooms, one bath and a detached garage, converted to a garden cottage.  This craftsman gem has an open, contemporary feel while maintaining its craftsman style.  The common rooms (living room, dining room and kitchen) open to each other and have an easy indoor/outdoor flow. Bay windows are prominent in the living room and kitchen, and period built-ins surround the stone fireplace in the living room and add vintage charm to the dining room.
The Seller has done a lot of work to the house, both in terms of what you see and what you don't.  The kitchen has been extensively remodeled with beautiful tilework, s/s appliances, and custom cabinets and countertops.  The bathroom has been updated with a designer tile floor, a vintage sink, lighting and a fan.  French doors, closets and new windows have been added to one the bedrooms for convenience and for easy access to the deck and outdoor patio.  The foundation has been seismically upgraded, and a deck with built-in benches and a trellis has been added to provide additional living and entertaining space.  The Seller converted the garage into a garden cottage which she used as a home office/gym. She also landscaped both the front and backyards.
The home is conveniently located near the Saturday farmer's market, the Grand Lake/Lakeshore shopping district, and Lake Merritt.  Access to San Francisco is readily available -- via the Transbay bus on MacArthur Blvd.(two blocks away) or Bart.
