About this home
DO NOT DISTURB OCCUPANTS. OFFER DATE TO BE DETERMINED APPROX. ONE WEEK AFTER SHOWINGS BEGIN WHICH WILL BE IN ABOUT 10 DAYS. Great potential in a country setting. Set back from the main road and neslted peacefully on a beautiful 1.49 acre parcel of land this 3 bedroom one/half bath home backs to Chabot Regional Park Walking Trails. This property features two domiciles. Features include a main house approx 1850sq. ft.(per public records) and a rental cottage as well as a large out building for storage. The home includes a large kitchen with an eating area overlooking the front yard, while the dining and living room overlooks a deck and spacious backyard plus inside laundry with a half bath and pantry. Additonal featrures include a large rumpus room/library to the rear of the house. The lot has ADU potential as well as possibilities for a lot split creating additonal parcels (buyers need to check with the county to confirm ADU and lot split possibilities and details). You will feel like you are in the country while only moments away from all the local conveniences. Near Redwood road and Castro Valley Blvd, close to schools, shopping, and transportation,Intersate 580-880-and 238. Surrounded by multible trees in a tranquial neighborhood this is a rare find. This home presents an opportunity for a handyman or contractor to make improvements to suit his/her tastes and needs and make it a sanctuary and earn some sweat equity while doing so. If you need a place to keep toys, tools or additional vehicles it all right here. The out building is spacious, one portion enclosed and one open. Plenty of room for the family recreational vehicles, i.e. boats, bikes, jet ski's, and much more. A contractor may find this property very useful. The lot is flat with a slight grade to the rear.
Castro Valley Hills, located between Lake Chabot Regional Park and the Castro Valley BART station, is a hillside and residential Castro Valley neighborhood with winding ridge roads and broad East Bay views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Redwood Road and Castro Valley Boulevard corridor, where independent eateries, small markets, and everyday services set a steady, local rhythm. Mid-century ranch homes and contemporary rebuilds share steep lots, decks, and terraced gardens. Trailheads and oak-lined streets shape an outdoors-forward routine. Chabot Cinema anchors movie nights, while The Bistro and Paradiso Restaurant keep the dining scene distinctly local. Commutes and weekend plans often pivot between BART, the park, and the hills’ quieter cul-de-sacs.
