This 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom hillside home in Point Richmond offers sprawling views of the East Bay hills, light-filled rooms, and close proximity to local shopping and hiking trails. Agent Sarah Torney of BHG Reliance Partners teamed up with project director Lara Richmond to add some modern conveniences to this home while still keeping its vintage 1904 charms intact. Under Lara’s direction, some of the major upgrades included repairs to the hardwood flooring throughout the home, design and functional improvements in the kitchen, and new amenities in the bathroom. Once this project wrapped up, the property sold for $905,000, earning the sellers a $54,561 profit!
