About This Home
As of November 2022Welcome to the sunny side of the street. This superb 3 bed 2 bath home is in a prime North Berkeley location. Hardwood floors, dual pane windows, period details and flooded in southwest light. Living room has an attractive fireplace with gas insert and a cozy reading nook below bay windows. The dining area near the kitchen is spacious enough for a large table. 2 bedrooms and 1 updated bath are located off the hallway. In the rear of the home is the third bedroom which overlooks the yard and the 2nd updated bath - complete with a vaulted skylight. The handsome eat-in kitchen has a new fridge and stove plus dark stone countertops, farmhouse sink, cork floors and seamless entry onto the wood deck – creating a true “alfresco” experience. Private backyard is tremendous – coupled with mature plantings, veggie containers, an active fig tree, hot tub and the coolest wood fired oven you ever did see, some call this oven the “friend maker” – Detached garage has a workbench. The deep driveway has been updated with a new pebble parking pad and fresh landscaping in the front. Neighborhood is a delight - tree lined and bike friendly, close to N. Berkeley BART, Monterey Market, Totland, Ohlone Park, WestBrae and the Gourmet Ghetto, the list goes on and on. 99 Bikescore! Open 10/22 and 10/23
