Welcome to 761 Colusa Avenue, a perfectly located and lovingly restored home with stunning views, an enormous lot and flexible floor plan. Upon arrival, you are greeted by an enchanting front garden overflowing with wildflowers and California natives. The contemporary, sophisticated interior is updated throughout while still preserving the classic elements. The streamlined floorplan flows from the formal living room with fireplace into the multiple dining areas; an elegant, gourmet eat-in kitchen; and then to two large, light-filled bedrooms and a luxurious spa-inspired bathroom. With gleaming hardwood floors and San Francisco and Bay views from almost every window, this home is truly a retreat. Downstairs, with interior and exterior access, even more sweeping bay and garden views, the space has been transformed into a bright, elegant space with endless possibilities—home office, guest room, playroom, in-law. Additionally, the downstairs offers a lovely laundry room and abundant storage. Situated on an exceptionally large, the home is perfect for enjoying California indoor/outdoor lifestyle to the fullest, whether entertaining guests to kids playing on the large level lawn to growing vegetables/gardening. Further maximizing these lushly landscaped, mature grounds is an awe-inspiring detached studio/workshop— a creative sanctuary with even more spectacular views from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors. Beyond the comprehensive aesthetic upgrades, this home has newer electrical, plumbing, heater, and is sewer lateral compliant. All this is conveniently located near the essentials and extras including BART, many local favorite stores and restaurants as well as having easy freeway access. 761 Colusa Avenue is move-in ready and will instantly make you the envy everyone you know.
