Tucked behind a private gate and fragrant white roses, this 4-bedroom, 2+bathroom storybook cottage feels like its own little world, yet everything you need is just down the street! One direction brings you to Trader Joe's, Peet's Coffee, Pinole Library, and more; the other leads to Pinole Valley Park with sports fields, a dog park, and hiking trails. Step through the front door into a cheerful mudroom, then into the living room where a brick fireplace adds warmth. To your right, the eat-in kitchen has been updated with newer appliances, stone countertops, and freshly painted cabinetry. There's also interior access to a large 2-car garage. Two bedrooms and a full bath round out the lower level. Upstairs, two more bedrooms share a second full bath. Out back is magical: a sparkling pool, blackberries cascading over the fence, and paved patios made for al fresco dining. A gentle tree-lined slope leads to a detached hobby shed, wired and ready to be a home office or music room. All of this is set on an impressive quarter-acre-plus lot. Pick some blackberries, grab a pool chair; we don't mind if you stay awhile.
