Welcome to your Hayward Hills dream home, where charm meets everyday functionality. Tucked onto a corner lot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this split-level gem is filled with character, from the soaring wood ceilings to the real hardwood floors throughout. The main level offers a bedroom and a primary bath, with the flexibility to create a fifth bedroom along with another 1/2 bath. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and another full bath give everyone room to spread out. The kitchen has all brand new appliances and flows seamlessly into one of the two living rooms. Outside, the backyard feels like a private retreat, with a functional pond with fish and a private hillside. A neighborhood park is just a short walk away, and Cal State East Bay, commuter routes, shopping, and restaurants are all close by. Homes with this much warmth, setting, and versatility don't come along often.
