The San Francisco Bay at the edge of a vast ocean, encircled by mountains, hillscapes, and vibrant cities, holds some of the world's most awe-inspiring vistas. From radically gradient sunsets, rolling fog with curling mists, and afternoon waves and skyscraper windows that reflect the sun in glittering specks. The Bay never disappoints, calling people to stop and gather at its sight. One such hillscape in the East Bay is El Cerrito and perched at one of the highest points sits 8648 Thors Bay Road, with its graciously stated Mid-century character and panoramic views, it is a prize at the end of a winding driveway.
Architectural splendor greets you when you enter the home, with redwood-paneled walls, vaulted ceilings, and an abundance of windows allowing light and views to flood the home. The living room offers a diagonal, view-framing wall of windows to match the pitch of the roof and a wall-length, built-in bench below a sleek gas fireplace. The living room is the perfect spot for cozy evenings or hosting gatherings with loved ones. The expansive kitchen affords ample storage and counter space for those with a passion for cooking and is set between the dining area and family room that opens to the rear yard patio. The level rear patio is both private and sheltered and ideal for BBQs and outdoor meals.;
The ground floor offers accessible entries from both the front door and the garage and provides a bedroom suite, perfect for someone with single-level living needs, visiting guests or a home office space. Upstairs is an efficiently laid out floor plan with an oversized laundry closet, 2 bedrooms that share a bathroom, as well a primary bedroom suite. Each bedroom upstairs offers deck space and the primary suite is primed for waking up and going to sleep with striking Bay views.;
The home is just blocks from one of El Cerrito’s most beloved parks, with a spacious grassy field, a duck pond and stream, tennis courts, and more. Minutes to BART, shops, trails, schools and parks, you get the very best of the Bay Area.;
