About This Home
As of November 2024This charming Berkeley home features an updated kitchen and bathroom. From the covered front porch you walk into a welcoming living room with a fireplace that was recently converted to a gas insert. In the formal dining room, you will find a gorgeous, original built-in cabinet. Next, head into the kitchen and you will find everything the home gourmet needs including a 36-inch Verona double oven with 5 burners, dishwasher, French door refrigerator and ample cabinets, there's room for an island or table and chairs. The double doors off the kitchen lead to a sun-drenched deck and yard, where you will find mature fruit trees (fig, apple, plum, Asian pear and a blueberry bush) plus a custom brick barbecue. The garage has been converted to a studio with a playful exterior of painted flowers and was once featured on a walking tour. The oversize guest bedroom has a unique feature wall of winter birch trees. The primary bedroom is up a short flight of stairs. Both bedrooms have closet organizers with built in dressers. The roof and gutters were replaced in November 2023.
