CLOSE TO DOWNTOWN SHOPS & CAFES

Nestled into private  corner downslope lot at the end of the road, 265 Washington Court is a hidden gem, a lovingly maintained mid-century modern home that has the "Wow!" factor from the moment you enter the front door. Expansive water views in the living-dining areas are enhanced by the vaulted ceilings above and the warmth of the oak wood floors beneath, flooded with natural light, and graced by the floor-to-ceiling fireplace! Two bedrooms and full bath enhance effortless one-level living on the main floor. The south-facing bedroom is enveloped in natural light all day long. The west-facing bedroom has a skylight and sliding glass doors for access to the deck, hot tub and bountiful gardens. The sunsets are breath-taking from here! The updated chef's kitchen has quartzite countertops, it's own skylight and walk-in pantry. 

The stunning lower also has water views! As a permitted one bed/one bath ADU with it's own private entrance and laundry, the ADU offers potential rental income. Or, it can also function as the 3rd bedroom for the main house, with a family room, home office or entertainment center for extended stay family, guests. or graduates!

The beauty of this location is the five-minute stroll to downtown Point Richmond for morning coffee, local markets, cafes and eateries. The best kept secret in the Bay area is Point Richmond's convenient commute location, just 10 minutes from the ferry to San Francisco or 15 minutes to Larkspur Landing in Marin or Fourth Street shopping district in Berkeley!


Neighborhood

Once an island, Point Richmond maintains its distinct character despite now being connected to the mainland via a short tunnel. This charming enclave sits perched along rugged hillsides overlooking San Francisco Bay, where historic Victorian homes command spectacular views of the San Francisco and Marin skylines.

The heart of this village-like neighborhood is the Point Richmond Triangle, a vibrant district featuring boutique shops, art galleries, and cozy cafés. Local treasures include the beautifully restored Richmond Municipal Natatorium (affectionately known as "The Plunge"), a historic swimming facility offering year-round aquatic activities.

Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate how the San Francisco Bay Trail winds through the neighborhood, providing stunning waterfront vistas and convenient connections to surrounding communities. For a truly unique experience, the East Brother Light Station stands just offshore—a Victorian lighthouse transformed into an exclusive bed and breakfast on its own island, preserving a piece of the area's maritime history.
