This special home, owned by one family since its inception in 1978, is located in the Alhambra Hills development. Situated at the top of the hill on Macalvey Drive, the home sits directly across the street to open space, with access to the CA Riding and Hiking Trail including a section of the Mokelumne Coast to Crest Trail, and is nestled into a highly desirable pocket of homes on the Martinez - Pleasant Hill border. It is conveniently located within minutes to a variety of city center shopping districts, restaurants, desirable schools, churches, etc., and is surrounded with all types of community parks for recreation. There is also relatively easy access to the highways and other optional routes for getting through town. Bart is nearby with easy commuter options West towards Oakland/Berkeley/San Francisco and East toward Sacramento. With its prime location, this home presents a fabulous opportunity for a new owner to update and make the home their own. Upon entering the home, the unmistakable well-kept Italianate design from the 70's delivers you to a time gone by, with its envelope of classic finishes and flooring. It isn't hard to imagine the possibilities of designing these spaces to fit today's styling with your own choice of finishes.
