About This Home

Delightful Poet’s Corner bungalow, circa 1923, full of vintage charm and garden views. This single-level duplex with side-by-side one bedroom- one bath units has been used as a single-family home for years and more recently as a duplex. The layout offers many living possibilities. Set on an oversized lot with drought-tolerant landscaping and a majestic oak tree, the garden is designed to attract birds and pollinators. A detached garage offers great potential for a separate unit, studio, or workshop. Each unit features a fireplace, hardwood floors, built-in hutch, and vintage lighting. A light-filled bonus room known as “the aerie” is perfect for an office or creative space. Enjoy off-street parking and easy garden access from both units. Located on a charming one-block street in central Berkeley, close to transit, shops, and parks—this is a rare opportunity in a truly special setting.
