Emeryville property features two turnkey homes and a detached shed on a single lot.
A pair of turnkey homes, each with a kitchen that opens to the outdoors, stand waiting on a single lot south of Temescal Creek Park in Emeryville.
“This is rare for the area because usually the second home on the lot is just a studio or garage,” said Liz Behrens of the Grubb Co., who is listing 1027 47th St. for $995,000. “In this case, the back home is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom with 1,000 square feet of living space.”
There is a stone patio bordered by maple trees and garden shed between the two homes. Each two-bedroom residence hosts a modernized kitchen, a light-filled interior and an updated bathroom.
Hardwood flooring lines each residence, and the main home enjoys a dual-sided fireplace that warms the kitchen and
dining room. Emeryville-based ADBC Architects modernized the kitchen in the main home, adding custom cabinetry and stainless steel counters to the room centered around an island with a built-in cooktop.
French doors off the kitchen in the secondary residence open to a rear deck, while the main home’s kitchen steps out to the rear garden through a 10-foot wide sliding glass door. The exterior’s retractable partitions of slatted siding filter sunlight as it pours into the kitchen.
