Property Description

Gazing out from the rooftop deck over the backyard of 830 Cornell, you will have many difficult decisions ahead. First of all: What’s your favorite part? Is it the gold-streaked sunset over Albany Hill? The sumptuous aromas tempting you to visit Solano’s restaurants? Or is your prize the comfort & seclusion of the private yard & patio right below you? More choices await you. Let’s take a look inside! Behind the charming MacGregor-style facade is the long & spacious living room. Does this include your main dining area, or would you rather use the eat-in kitchen’s abundant breakfast nook? Ah, decisions, decisions! Which of the three spacious bedrooms will be yours? What to cook in the well-appointed & updated kitchen? & out back there are more options: Go up a few steps to visit that private elevated terrace or go down the steps to the covered patio & a secluded bonus space*. This room has laundry hookups, but is much larger than the phrase “laundry room” suggests. It's well suited for hobbies like painting, workouts, crafting, or hosting game nights, but would also make a great office. It looks out onto the greenhouse windows so you can see the backyard with mature fruit trees & its timeless grace. The patio & yard combine for a perfect space for entertainments like birthday parties or a BBQ. Trader Joe’s is slightly closer than Sprouts & Whole Foods, but nothing is out of the way here in Albany. Don’t feel like cooking? More hard choices await! Like, what's the best way to follow up a night out for dinner at Little Star**, Zaytoon, 5 Tacos, Lulu’s Kitchen, or the illustrious Juanita & Maude? Local favorites like As You Wish Froyo, Mr Dewie’s Cashew Creamery? Or perhaps a nip at Best Friends (pet-friendly wine bar), Ocean View Brew Works, The Mallard, or even The Hotsy Totsy! Uh, Oh, are you worried about driving home? Not with your house’s 93 Walk Score® & 98 Bike Score™, you aren’t! It’s all part of the joy of small-town living, like sitting at Hal’s Cafe in the morning & getting to know the kids who troop by with Cornell Elementary’s Walking School Bus, or giving a well-earned cheer to the helpful members of the beloved Blue Glove Crew! All while big city delights & utility are never far away. Come see why Albany is such a special place to call home. The choice is easier than you think. *Buyer to verify use of space. **Apologies to the Zachary’s aficionados; Little Star is less than a block away, & that semolina crust deep dish is tough competition!
