About This Home
Thoughtfully reimagined in 2026 under the guidance of a professional designer, this charming 2++ BR, 2 BA Westbrae bungalow pairs classic 1941 character w/fresh, modern style. The all-new chef’s kitchen features custom sage cabinetry, leathered granite counters, a handmade tile backsplash, a workstation sink w/brass fixtures, open shelving + a professional-grade range. The split-level floor plan provides great flexibility + separation of space: a lovely living room w/hardwood floors, a vintage tile-framed fireplace + French doors to the magical backyard, along w/a formal dining room and a sunny breakfast nook on the main level; 2 spacious BRs + an elegant, updated BA upstairs; and 2 versatile bonus rooms (office/guest/hobby), a stylishly remodeled full BA (2026) + a laundry room on the lower level w/its own entrance. Fresh paint inside + out, new lighting throughout, and BESO compliance w/ Home Energy Score of 8. Outside, flagstone patios, mature plantings + multiple seating areas create a tranquil garden retreat. All this, less than 1⁄2 mile to Westbrae’s shops, cafes + markets, and 0.8 miles to N Berkeley BART. With a Walk Score of 89 and a perfect Bike Score of 100, this is Berkeley living at its finest!
