Set on a tree-lined street, the Spanish-style 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath main home and 1 bedroom, detached ADU inspire gatherings, indoor/outdoor living, calm, and flexibility. This location puts BART, buses and the very best of Berkeley within easy reach. With a 90 Walk Score and 94 Bike Score, this location is a dream for commuters and locals alike.

The result: 2619sf of space with the airy, elevated feel of a Mediterranean villa, modern comforts, and quality that endures. The home's artistry begins at the covered porch, where you're greeted by a magnificent front door, hand-crafted from reclaimed Oakland Acacia wood by renowned Zen woodworker Paul Discoe. A custom black iron railing lines the staircase, leading to a primary suite that spans the entire west side of the upper level. Afternoon light bathes this retreat overlooking a calming olive tree. Work in the bright office nook and enjoy an en-suite bath with a vintage clawfoot tub. Three more upstairs bedrooms share a refreshed hallway bathroom with a shower/tub combo. Downstairs, refinished Jatoba cherry wood floors glow under light pouring through arched windows. Flow from the great room to the dining room to the kitchen-an open-concept layout ideal for daily life and lively parties. Wood cabinetry, Saltillo tile floors, a granite island with bar sink, gas range, breakfast area, and sliding glass doors anchor this warm, refined space. A powder room is tucked discreetly nearby.

Same family. Thirty years. And they left it better than they found it. This 3BD/2.5BA townhome sits in the gated Shinglewood Ct community — a quiet, tree-lined 16-unit enclave in Union City's Alvarado neighborhood that rarely turns over. And within that community, this unit is genuinely one of a kind: it's the only home with its own private exterior gate, the only one with air conditioning, and one of just two three-bedroom floor plans in the entire complex. At roughly 1,600 sq ft, it's been fully refreshed top to bottom — brand-new kitchen, remodeled bathrooms, fresh paint throughout, and professionally cleaned carpets. Step out back, and it's done for you: a fully landscaped, no-maintenance yard that stays green year-round, plus a storage shed for everything that doesn't have a home inside. Attached garage, central A/C, private gated entry. The lowest HOA fees in the entire city, and it takes care of maintenance, landscaping, and water. Nothing left to do but move in. The location carries the rest. Union Landing and Union Square Marketplace cover shopping and dining, and Central Park, Alvarado Park, and the Alameda Creek Regional Trail are all close when you want out of the house. Zoned for New Haven Unified, including the Mandarin immersion program at Emanuele Elementary, this home is right across the street from Alvarado Elementary. — a real draw at this price point.
