About This Home

As of August 2025

Step inside 1189 Sutter and the first thing you’ll notice is the abundance of natural light flooding the living room from windows on three sides, and a cozy fireplace that invites you to settle in. The open layout between the dining area and kitchen makes everyday living feel easy — and hosting a dinner party or weekend brunch? Even easier. Two of the three bedrooms open to the sunny backyard via sliding glass doors, while the third offers generous closet space and a charming nook. A full bathroom plus a guest half-bath complete the main level. A stairway off the kitchen leads down to the basement and garage - with laundry, windows, exterior doors, and direct yard access already in place, this basement level is ideal for expansion or creative use. The spacious backyard is a blank canvas—garden beds, outdoor dining, play space, even an ADU are all possibilities. And when it’s time to explore, take a sunny stroll to the Cheeseboard for a slice. Rally with friends at the Live Oak Park tennis courts. Ride your bike to UC Berkeley. Catch the TransBay bus to SF without missing a beat. A car-free lifestyle is more than possible at this perfectly located home. At 1189 Sutter, light fills every corner and possibilities abound.
