About this home

Welcome to 640 East L Street in historic Benicia! This charming Spanish-style home features an authentic adobe-inspired entrance, front patio, and warm Southwestern tones. The expansive great room stretches the entire length of the home from the front door to the back deck, creating an ideal layout for entertaining. Tax records show 3 bedrooms, but a prior conversion turned one space into a formal dining area off the kitchen (easily used as a home office or converted back). A huge bonus is the deep backyard with direct alley access, perfect for secure RV or boat parking. The unbeatable location is just minutes from bustling downtown shopping, premier waterfront dining, art galleries, a certified farmers' market, and convenient commute routes. Don't miss this incredible opportunity!
