By the time you’re inside, you'll have begun envisioning your life here. Light floods window to window, w/ views from every room. Beautifully finished oak floors and fir trim exude warmth & elegance. With 4 beds, 2 baths, & a level-out basement full of possibilities, the layout is flexible to your needs. Its spacious dining & living rooms have finely made, built-in cabinetry & tastefully molded ceilings. The bright, airy galley kitchen w/ an eat-in space opens to terraced decks, overlooking a lovingly tended garden. Whether you’re entertaining, enjoying time w/ loved ones, or working, this is your ideal home-base. Situated in an extraordinarily walkable neighborhood b/t Solano & Hopkins, it's thought by many to be the most attractive house in North Berkeley, but just wait till you see the yard!
