With mid-century provenance, one-level living, and beautiful updates, 5457 Barrett Avenue is an El Cerrito treasure. Set back from the street, the private courtyard offers a peaceful and perfect entrance befitting this lovely home. The stunning original floor tile in the entrance opens to a spacious family room with gas-insert floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace which flows into an elegant dining room. The kitchen, renovated with permits in 2021 is a cheerful respite - a perfect place for a home chef to create and entertain as the eat-in area sits next to a sunny sliding glass door that opens to the wrap-around deck. Four spacious bedrooms - one of which is an en-suite with adjoining bathroom renovated in 2022 - are sited on the north wing of the home. Two bedrooms have sliding glass doors that step out to the large deck, a perfect place for a splash of sun, the fresh air of an easy-to-tend garden, with enough space to entertain friends and family. This home enjoys so many updates besides the new kitchen and en-suite bathroom, including updated electrical (2019 + 2022), water heater (2021), new fences (2024), and windows by Anderson (2006). Large two-car garage, one-level living, and zoned for Mira Vista Elementary. Open Sunday April 29th, 2-4 PM
