Truly remarkable and rare! 220 El Camino is a cool & sophisticated 1950 Contemporary on a large relatively flat parcel in the Claremont! The public spaces are elegant and generously sized with high ceilings and lots of light. Two spacious bedrooms, two & one half baths, a study + kitchen/breakfast room with laundry, pantry and lots of storage make this the perfect smaller home that lives large. What is most remarkable is the oversized garden, so rare in the East Bay. The living room and study open onto a large deck that surrounds a beautiful Sequoia tree and leads to the garden filled with mature plantings, winding paths, outdoor gathering areas, and sunny spots for a vegetable garden. Plus two car garage and off street parking. Located on the upside of the El Camino cul-de-sac near a public path leading to Hillcrest Rd, not far from Star Market and public transport. In the same family since the early 1970's, a bit of updating would make this stylish home just about perfect!
