This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom ranch-style home in San Pablo is truly an entertainer's dream in a magical setting. This home features an open concept kitchen, dining, and living room, connected to a private backyard with a pond and outdoor fireplace. Agent Rayne Palmer of BHG Reliance Partners teamed up with project director Lara Richmond to add some modern conveniences and design features to this property before it was made available to buyers. Under Lara’s direction, some of the major renovations included upgrading the lighting in each room, installing new vanities and amenities in both bathrooms, and sprucing up the landscaping and exterior paint around the home. Once this project wrapped up, the home sold for $786,000, earning the sellers a $139,560 profit and a 145% return on their investment!
