Come relax and refresh at our country retreat on 1 acre in the heart of the Bay Area, just 15 minutes drive to Berkeley/Oakland. This property is a holdover from the time when El Sobrante was a farming area with cattle and sheep grazing. We are surrounded by other 1-3 acre properties. You will enjoy spectacular views of Pinole Valley and Wildcat Canyon Regional Park (2,500 acres) which is just a 5 minute drive from the house. Our home is a Spanish style ranch house with tile floors throughout, plenty of rugs for comfort underfoot, wood beams, a wood-burning fireplace and a completely renovated bathroom. There is a back deck with wonderful valley views and comfortable outdoor furniture, the best spot for morning coffee. In the front of the house is large courtyard with an outdoor dining area and a smaller coffee table encircled by colorful shrubs and cafe lights. The perfect spot for an outdoor summer meal.
