About This Home

As of June 2026

Enchanting, and genuinely livable — this North Berkeley condo in an intimate 2-unit complex offers the ease of a private home at an approachable price point, without the overhead of a large, structured HOA. The light-filled main level greets you with warm hardwood floors and a gracious living and dining room. Tall south-facing windows with custom blinds offer elevated outlooks and flood the space with natural light. The kitchen charms with vintage tiles and a distinctive arched detail above the sink, while dual-pane windows, generous storage, and a remodeled tiled bath bring thoughtful functionality to a home rich in character. Downstairs, over 300 square feet of finished bonus space invites you to imagine the possibilities — media room, home office, yoga retreat, creative space? A private washer and dryer, a one-car garage, and a quiet deck for unwinding complete the picture. The two units operate mostly independently — no monthly HOA fees, no bureaucracy. Blocks to North Berkeley BART and the central Berkeley walking and bike path, minutes to cafés, restaurants, Fourth Street boutiques and more — this is a neighborhood worth coming home to.
