About This Home
Exceptional 4-unit Berkeley property offering rare flexibility for both owner-occupiers and investors.** This unique compound features a triplex plus a fully permitted, recently upgraded 1BD/1BA ADU at the rear of the property. Two units are currently leased and income-generating, while two units are scheduled to be delivered vacant at close of escrow—creating an ideal opportunity to live on-site, generate rental income, or reposition the property for long-term wealth building. The front triplex includes three well-maintained residences: a bright and spacious 3BD/2BA upper unit with soaring ceilings and a formal dining room, plus two lower-level units consisting of a 3BD/1BA and a 2BD/1BA. The rear ADU feels like new and offers a private patio, making it an excellent owner’s retreat, guest space, or premium rental unit. Enjoy a lush shared backyard with a BBQ area, raised garden beds, and vibrant landscaping. Ideally located near Berkeley shops, parks, transit, restaurants, and everyday conveniences, 1522 Harmon offers excellent proximity and walkability in one of the Bay Area’s most desirable rental markets. The property is **BESO compliant and sewer compliant**, adding valuable peace of mind for the next owner. A rare Berkeley opportunity combining location, income potential, lifestyle, and long-term upside.
