Richmond, CA 94801 233 Arizona

This sweet Boho Chic Victorian Garden Cottage was built in 1904, 2 years after Pacific Oil (Chevron’s predecessor) completed the refinery. Point Richmond, (East Yards in those days) was a small railroad town at the end of a dusty road. This well-loved home retains much of its original charm, updated & cared-for over the years. A studio ADU was added in 2006, barely visible from the main house amongst 7800 sf of landscaped irrigated gardens. French doors in the great room & primary bedroom overlook a serene patio, perfect for alfresco dining & enjoying the garden. A full height basement provides abundant storage/workshop space as well. On a quiet cul de sac, with plenty of parking in a neighborhood of similar homes, it’s close to the elementary school, shops & restaurants in the village of Point Richmond, and the Plunge, a unique indoor public pool. The public beach and ferry are close too. Close to the freeway for commuters, & plenty of work from home space as well. Bamboo and tile floors throughout, updated baths (with a refurbished claw foot tub), a vintage Wedgewood stove, and a front porch to greet the friendly neighbors. Ample primary suite with built-in daybed/lounger - the perfect mini reading room, & artistic touches abound. This one will make your heart sing.
