About This Home

As of December 2021

The Little Cottage That Could! Cute and cozy don't begin to describe this Poet's Corner gem. There is no need to buy a condo or rent an apartment when you can have this charming detached home with large closets, abundant natural light, direct access to the back yard, a recently new foundation, dual-pane windows, and a functional garage. Just blocks to almost everything... North Berkeley BART, AC Transit transbay lines, Downtown Berkeley, and just a little further to Monterey Market, Berkeley Bowl, Berkeley Horticulture, Cheeseboard Collective, UC Berkeley and beyond. You found it!
