Overview

Nature lovers rejoice! 508 Bonnie Drive is a gracious and welcoming home for all creatures great and small. With three bedrooms plus a large family/bonus room and an oversized lot, there's plenty of space for both work and play. Tucked behind a lush curtain of native plants framing Bay views, this home feels like a country retreat while being minutes away from transit, shopping, and cafes. The parklike yard has been landscaped with California native plants, which attract birds, butterflies, and bees. As you climb the curving brick stairs to the front door, the sounds of a year-round creek provide a calming background to the clamor of the goldfinches, wrens, towhees, and mourning doves. Inside, the spacious sun-drenched living/dining room invites cheerful conversation or relaxing contemplation of Bird TV'' as dynamic plant shadows dance across the wall and a large picture window tantalizes with views of the back patio. The downstairs bedroom has bridge and creek views. A bright, pine-paneled bonus room with direct access to the patio is large enough to be both a home office and an exercise, media, or craft room. If your hobbies overflow the bonus room, there's plenty of space for tinkering in the two-car garage. The eat-in chef's kitchen blends thoughtful updates with vintage charm and features gorgeous Heath tile, Bosch appliances, a Wedgewood stove and generous storage. Washing dishes is a treat and morning coffee tastes even better when you have Bridge and Bay views. A laundry area, pantry, and half bath off the kitchen add to the convenience. A charming patio, accessible from both the kitchen and bonus room, overlooks the Bay and flows into a private upper patio with herb and succulent gardens. Beyond the patio gate, the lush backyard is full of life, with an ever-changing palette of flowers and wild visitors including turkeys, deer, and foxes. (Ask to see the field guide!) A shady glen near the creek with hammock-ready tree branches awaits picnics, playtime, or relaxing with a good book. Upstairs, two east-facing bedrooms with spacious closets flank a roomy linen closet and full bathroom with original tile. Unique touches abound, including a Dutch front door, box-beam ceilings, oversized fireplace with built-in planter, and riotously colorful bathroom wallpaper. This home is move-in ready with many upgrades including a new roof with extra insulation and updated systems including energy-efficient heat pump water heater and HVAC.
