1207 Talbot Ave Albany, CA 94706

Live in Berkeley/Westbrae! On a street of historic homes is this charming bungalow complete with a Secret Garden style back yard & detached (96 sq. ft.) home office. The living room features original hardwood flooring, a fireplace and wood window frames. This space is large enough for both living and dining spaces — rare for a home of this size. Two bedrooms share a centrally located bathroom, remodeled with trendy green tile, bronze colored hardware, a wooden vanity, and open shelving — it delivers a spa-like feel. The refreshed kitchen has gorgeous marble counters, a subway tile backsplash, and ample counter space. The owners added custom cabinetry to create more storage, and furnished it with a large removable island, great for gatherings. Straight out from the kitchen is a redwood deck for BBQing and the yard, anchored with a mature apple tree. It shades the space, and has provided a bounty of fruit for cider & pie. The back deck, lawn, stone gravel lounge area, and outdoor potting station combine seamlessly. At the back of the lot is a separate home office. An exceptional Berkeley location with Gioia Pizzeria, Monterey Market, all of Gilman Street, Solano Avenue and more nearby!
