About This Home

As of May 2024

This North Berkeley bungalow is a true gem, filled with charm and potential. You might expect the original Craftsman wood trim, built-in cabinets, tile fireplace, Wolf range, and gorgeous hardwood floors. But what a delightful surprise to find a swimming pool in the backyard! Updated for sale with fresh paint, upgraded lighting, and more. Ideal location near Monterey Market, Espresso Roma, King tennis courts, and all the best of Hopkins, Solano, and the Gourmet Ghetto. Soak in all that North Berkeley has to offer (literally soak; there's a vintage redwood soaking tub in the back!) A special house in an extraordinary place.
