Come home to a charming, move-in ready single-family home in San Mateo’s desirable Sunnybrae neighborho­od. Find incredible value at 621 Birch Avenue that is also located in a thriving community that is filled with an abundance of qualities. It’s no wonder Sunnybrae is considered one of the best locations on the San Francisco Bay Area peninsula. Consider its proximity to top-rated schools including Aragon High School (849 APR), and Borel Middle School (827 API) both within a mile. Access to Highways 92 and 101 is less than two miles away. It is also less than seven miles to the San Francisco Internatio­nal Airport, and about 24 miles to Silicon Valley. Walk to downtown shops, cafes, and restaurant­s, and take advantage of incredible outdoor recreation areas. Coyote Point Park and Recreation Center (about three miles away) offers access to the beach and miles of trails, a playground, and Curiodysse­y, a hands-on science exhibit for children. The more than 16-acre San Mateo Central Park on Fifth Avenue is less than a mile away. It is home to the Japanese Garden designed by landscape architect Nagao Sakurai of the Imperial Palace of Tokyo. Central Park is also the site of several annual community events, including a summer music series, Fourth of July fun, a holiday ice-skating rink, and an Easter Eggstravag­anza.
