Canyon-view Craftsman home in El Cerrito with bonus studio casita. Prime short-term rental opportunity! This charming 2BR/2BA Craftsman home includes an attached 1BR/1BA casita with private entrance—ideal for short-term rental income, guest accommodations, or a private home office.

Lush canyon views and mature trees frame a serene backyard sanctuary complete with a spa, tiered patios, and thoughtfully landscaped spaces—ideal for evening gatherings, weekend brunches, or quiet moments with a book and a breeze.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
