Gas Prices Are High. PG&E Doesn't Have to Be. Some homes check boxes. This one renders them irrelevant. This single-story, turnkey, move-in ready, architect-designed residence sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Benicia's Southampton neighborhood. On a 7,400+ square foot private lot with waterfront views, owned NEM 2.0 solar, and finishes that would cost six figures to replicate, this energy-efficient home rewards buyers who look past the square footage and actually pay attention. The lot is fully fenced with automatic sprinklers, artificial turf, mature landscaping, a pergola, a dog run, three separate patios, a bocce court, and dedicated RV and boat parking, an outdoor entertaining package that most homes at twice the price cannot match. The expensive work is already done: owned solar, updated systems, clean inspection profile, and major components already addressed. Inside, vaulted ceilings lift the living room, dual-pane windows flood the space with natural light, and engineered hardwood floors run throughout, with ceramic tile in both bathrooms. The open floor plan kitchen opens to dining and living in a true great room workstation sink, quartz island, LG induction range, LG vented microwave, Bosch dishwasher, wine refrigerator, ice maker, and Energy Star appliances. Updated kitchen. Updated bathrooms. Zero compromises. The primary suite bath has radiant heat floors, multiple shower heads, and a bidet. The second bath has a soaking tub and bidet. Five closets plus a linen closet. The 24'+ two-car garage includes Samsung washer and dryer and space for a home office, workshop, or actually parking your cars. The owned NEM 2.0 solar conveys with the home. Benicia offers a historic waterfront, arts district, boutique dining, and easy access to San Francisco, Napa, and the East Bay. This home was designed, built, and maintained by a licensed architect. An independent pre-inspection confirmed it: the inspector found nothing outside of what the architect disclosed. Every item. Accounted for. You can request the full report. It is smaller than some. It is better than most. And it is ready for the buyer who came here to actually live not just to own square footage.
