About This Home

As of September 2025

If you had a checklist for your perfect Berkeley home, 1516 Parker St would tick every box—and then add a few surprises. Just a few steps to the entry, everything unfolds on one convenient level: a bright, open floor plan where kitchen, dining, and living spaces flow together. The modern kitchen features a super cool pantry, abundant storage, and and an open layout. There are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including a stylishly updated primary suite with a spacious closet, plus a sleek secondary bath. Two rear bedrooms open directly to the yard, blending indoor comfort with outdoor beauty. In back, a detached casita offers plenty of possibilities—a home office, art studio, or just a great place to lounge. The backyard is its own private retreat. Beautifully landscaped (front and back!) and complete with raised garden beds and a generous deck for dining or relaxing. And did I mention the sauna? This is a home with a conscience, upgraded for efficient, sustainable living—with comprehensive insulation, heat pump systems for both heating and hot water, owned solar panels, and backup power—providing clean indoor air, low-impact design and affordable living. Centrally located, you’re close to downtown Berkeley, the awesome Berkeley Bowl, parks and transportation.
