Rich in character, 5838 Sacramento Avenue evokes the timeless appeal of a Cape Cod-style bungalow. From the street, its modest façade is elevated by thoughtful architectural details: a prominent picture window framed by contrasting black shutters, vertical board-and-batten gable trim, and a distinctive geometric vent. Inside, the home is filled with natural light throughout the day and features sophisticated, designer upgrades in the kitchen, pantry, and powder room. With three bedrooms, one and a half baths, and a family room—all arranged on a single level—the layout offers flexibility for a range of lifestyles. Set on a 5,000 sq ft lot*, the property includes a generous rear garden with both sunlit areas and the dappled shade of mature trees—ideal for relaxation or entertaining. Conveniently located minutes from El Cerrito Plaza, BART, and neighborhood favorites like El Cerrito Natural Grocery and the Annex, this home strikes a rare balance between classic character and modern convenience. Bath count differs. Buyer to investigate.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
