About This Home

This home is charming inside and out, starting with a picture-perfect white picket fence. Inside, the sunlit living room boasts a dramatic vaulted ceiling with a focal-point fireplace, gleaming hardwood floors, and stylish granite countertops updating the kitchen. Step outside to a truly exceptional yard featuring fresh updates, including gravel paths, vibrant roses, a raised-bed garden, and an inviting outdoor pergola with a comfortable seating area, surrounded by lush fruit trees lining the rear perimeter. Major property updates include fresh interior and exterior paint, a new roof on both the main house and the detached garage, and new flooring in the garage bonus areas providing an extra 325 square feet of flexible living space (not included in the posted MLS square footage). Adding to the exceptional appeal, this property is zoned R4, offering a fantastic opportunity to transform the partially converted garage into a full Accessory Dwelling Unit for rental income or expanded family quarters (buyer to verify with City). Plus, you are just 4 blocks from Starbucks and less than a mile from vibrant downtown Redwood City. Truly a wonderful place to call home!

about this

Explore the Neighborhood

Redwood City occupies a strategic position at the heart of the San Francisco Peninsula, where bay shoreline meets rolling hills. The city's historic claim to climatic excellence, validated by a 1920s international study comparing it to the Canary Islands and Mediterranean Coast (hence the city’s motto, “Climate Best by Government Test"), reflects the consistent pleasant weather that continues to attract residents.

The downtown district exemplifies successful urban renewal, balancing historic architecture with modern amenities. The area serves as both the civic center, housing San Mateo County government facilities, and an entertainment destination with diverse dining and cultural venues. Modern conveniences, including smart parking systems, demonstrate the city's commitment to technological integration.

Distinct neighborhoods create varied living environments within the city limits. Redwood Shores, though geographically separate, forms an important waterfront district housing major technology companies like Oracle Corporation and Electronic Arts. The Emerald Hills area provides elevated residential spaces adjacent to natural preserves, offering hiking trails and panoramic views.
