Located on one of the finest streets in the Marina where numerous homes have been renovated and expanded, 35 Rico Way offers a superb opportunity to create an exceptional home. This partially-detached two-story single family home, situated nicely at the curve of the street, enjoys one of the largest lots on the block, notably wider in the rear garden than most neighborhood homes. Tall sycamore trees, borders of Japanese maples and boxwood hedge lead to the lovely paver front entrance.
The home is presently in need of TLC and updating. Property is not staged. Bring your design team and contractor for this As-Is sale.
The living room enjoys a wood-burning fireplace and opens via a wide doorway to the nicely proportioned dining room. Walnut-stained hardwood floors are found throughout the main level. The remainder of the main floor is private space – two bedrooms, two baths and a sunroom/office, multiple closets. The primary bedroom, filled with south and western light, opens to a small deck with winding stairs down to the garden. Its bath includes a large shower and dual sinks. The hall bath offers a shower over tub. The third bedroom and full bath are located on the lower level of the house. A slate-floored family room, with wet-bar and beverage fridge, enjoys windows on three sides and opens to the coveted spacious south-facing patio and garden. Glimpses of mature trees and greenery are seen in neighboring gardens.
The garage, with dual interior access, can accommodate at least two vehicles. The washer and dryer are housed in the garage.
