About This Home

As of November 2024

In a central North Berkeley location, this spacious duplex presents an attractive opportunity for extended family housing or rental income. Architecturally intriguing, the property is conveniently situated near N.Berkeley shops, restaurants, public transit, parks, and UC Berkeley campus. The upper unit, 1311, boasts generous living spaces, a study alcove in the living room, and abundant natural light. It features a large bedroom with an attached office, a second bedroom opening onto a small deck and stairs, an updated bathroom, and an in-unit washer/dryer. The lower unit, 1309, on the main level, shares a similar floor plan with original kitchen, ample communal areas, and a large bedroom with an attached study/sunroom. It includes one original bathroom and a second bedroom with an en-suite bath that opens onto a rear deck, a small garden, and an in-unit washer/dryer. The property offers two garages at the end of the driveway shared with a neighbor, two storage rooms, a petite garden area, and a patio with a trellis. While the foundation and systems require updating or repair, the potential rewards are undoubtedly worthwhile!
