About This Home
As of August 2024This hip urban compound is the ultimate in smart financial moves – two houses on one lot! Buy together with friends or family and live with people you love! Or, live in one house, and collect rent on the other! Front house has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, including the primary suite. Back house has 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a living room that opens to a private deck and yard space. Both houses have updated kitchens and baths, Nest thermostats, and their own in-house laundry! Both are ready to move in! Additional detached wood-paneled office or art studio. Generously-sized fenced lot with nice hang-out spaces. Solar panels (fully owned) provide electricity and offset meters to both houses. Great central Berkeley location, near BART and both Berkeley Bowls, with terrific parks just blocks away! Envision the possibilities now, and the flexibility for the future!
