Richmond View

First time on the market! Custom mid-century home with 180 degree views of San Francisco , the bay and the North Bay. Circa 1953, designed by local El Cerrito architect U.S. Barbachano in collaboration with the homeowner. There was an addition in 1979 with the assistance of architect Carl Christiansen. Beautiful custom cabinetry and attention to detail is seen throughout the home. Plenty of space for a family or multi-generational living. Level entry into the upper level offering two bedrooms, two baths, an office, living, dining, kitchen and direct access into a two-car garage. The lower level offers two bedrooms, an office, bonus rec room, laundry, workshop and additional space providing an opportunity to easily convert to a second unit. The bonus-rec room on the lower level was a wonderful gathering space for family events and celebrations over the years. The property is being sold with an adjacent lot for a combined 11,000 square foot lot. Filled with several fruit trees and a variety of flowering plants gives a park-like setting for all to enjoy. You won’t want to miss seeing this lovely home. Open Saturday and Sunday, 8/2 and 8/3 from 2:00 – 4:00.

Neighborhood

Once a center of industry and shipbuilding during World War II, the city of Richmond is focused on revitalization efforts that include a green revolution, with a solar-powered waste treatment plant; industrial printers; metal scrap recyclers; and manufacturers participating in green business initiatives. The city plans to add green jobs, create a cleaner community, and build a thriving tax base that can support better public services.
Richmond homes vary in style, including traditional, Cape Cod, contemporary, and French Country. 

Local residents can participate in a composting program that collects food scraps in specially marked street-side containers and offers gardeners free compost for their backyard gardens. Richmond also recycles its old buildings, too; the historic Ford assembly plant near the port of Richmond was converted into the Rosie the Riveter WWII Home Front National Historic Park, operated by the National Park Service.

Downtown is also experiencing revitalization, especially along Macdonald Avenue, the main commercial district that runs from 8th to 16th streets. The Richmond Main Street Initiative brings arts, music, dance, and theater to the area, transforming it into a pedestrian-friendly urban village.
Progressive politics are a part of life in Richmond. The city is the largest in the U.S. to have a Green Party mayor in Gayle McLaughlin.
