Location, location, location! It doesn't get much better than this. Boasting an impressive Walk Score of 92, this home is considered a Walker's Paradise where daily errands rarely require a car. Located just half a mile from vibrant Downtown San Mateo, you'll enjoy convenient access to an abundance of shopping, dining, entertainment, a movie theater, and the Caltrain station for an easy commute. Highway 101 and San Mateo Central Park are also less than half a mile away, while highly rated schools are nearby. Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan flows seamlessly from the enclosed front porch/foyer to the formal living room with a cozy fireplace, the formal dining room with a charming bay window and built-in cabinetry, and the kitchen featuring ample cabinet space and a pantry. A separate laundry room with a utility sink adds convenience, while two comfortable bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. Situated on a 6,073± sq. ft. lot, the detached garage has been converted into a studio with a full bathroom and kitchenette, while a spacious workshop shed provides additional flexibility. The backyard offers lawn and garden areas, fruit trees, and a patio. With a little TLC, update the existing home or reimagine the possibilities afforded by the R-2 zoning.
