About this House

Advantageously located near BART and El Cerrito Plaza, this 1960’s fourplex has been enhanced with Great Gatsby flair. Artistry is evident in the commissioned ironwork that grants elegance to the entry where the 1920’s inspired art deco tree motif adorns the façade. Pride of ownership continues inside, as the building has benefited from being well-maintained and through the additions of elements such as crown moldings and bamboo floors. All four units feature generous room sizes, access to patios or decks, ample natural light and copious storage.
6500 Central Ave, El Cerrito, CA 94530 is a 9 bedroom, 5 bathroom, 3,768 sqft multi-family built in 1961. It last sold for $1,600,000 on Apr 28, 2017. It is currently off market. The Trulia Estimate is $1,840,800, with a rent estimate of $2,095/month.
