About This Property

A rare Benicia gem offering two separate homes on one expansive corner lot, just minutes from the charming downtown waterfront! This unique property features a beautiful 1935 bungalow in front and a spacious 1-bed, 1.5-bath home in back, creating incredible flexibility for multigenerational living, rental income, guest quarters, or a true live/work setup. The front home greets you with timeless character: original hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, coved ceilings, and abundant natural light. Tasteful updates blend seamlessly with period charm, offering a warm and welcoming feel the moment you step inside. Enjoy a bright kitchen, spacious dining room, two comfortable bedrooms, and a refreshed bathroom plus the convenience of central heat and A/C. The second home sits privately behind the main residence and features its own entrance, fenced yard, and attached 2-car garage. With a generous living area, full kitchen, bedroom suite, and separate half bath, it's ideal for extended family, caregivers, guests, or rental opportunities. Outside, the large 9,147 sq ft corner lot provides plenty of extra parking (up to 6 vehicles), garden space, and room to entertain all with a peekaboo view of Mt. Diablo. Located in the heart of Benicia, you're moments from downtown shops, cafes, restaurants, schools, and the beloved waterfront. Properties with this level of versatility and charm rarely come to market. Two homes. Endless possibilities. Welcome to your next chapter in beautiful Benicia!
