San Francisco Area
We're a short easy ride from San Francisco. Our home is an attractive, comfortable 3 bedroom, 1.25 bath one-story bungalow with dining room, eat in kitchen, and a wonderful back yard that is just made for a barbeque. A fully equipped, modern kitchen with Viking stove makes cooking fun. One of the bedrooms has been converted to an office with a sofa bed that sleeps 2 and has a PC computer w/DSL internet access. The other bedrooms have queen size beds. The master bedroom has a 37 inch TV with cable TV and a DVD Player. The living room has a 50 inch Sony TV with cable TV, a DVD player and a stereo system that may keep you home but we are so close to San Francisco that would be a shame. It is a 2 block walk to downtown Alameda's markets, restaurants and shops. Supermarkets are less than half a mile away. Our neighbors are wonderful people that we have known for many years. They will be helpful if needed. Arrangements for use of our car can be made.
