121 Santa Fe Ave, Richmond, CA 94801
What This Apartment Offers
**Refurbished 1BR + office in historic Point Richmond**
121 Santa Fe is a triplex built in 1910. Unit A occupies the entire left side of the building — 650…
square feet, long and light, taken back to the studs and rebuilt in 2026. A large living room opens to the kitchen across a granite breakfast bar; behind it sits a medium office with its own closet and window, then the bedroom at the back. The front door opens onto a private side patio and an iron gate, looking across the street at a beautifully restored 1901 home.
**One block to town.**
Point Richmond is a tiny historic village — restaurants, coffee shops, art galleries, two grocery stores and two dental offices, all within a block. In the evening you can catch a play at the 50-seat Masquers Playhouse, have a long dinner at Hotel Mac, or find live music at a nearby bar.
**A mile to the hills.**
The Point Richmond hills hold a maze of trails for hiking and mountain biking, with three-bridge views — the Golden Gate, the Richmond–San Rafael, and the Bay Bridge.
**Getting around.**
A bus stop one block away puts BART about 15 minutes out. The Richmond ferry terminal runs to the San Francisco Ferry Building. I-580 west over the Richmond–San Rafael Bridge puts Marin roughly fifteen minutes away; eastbound it connects to the I-80 corridor. A public elementary school is a few blocks away.
