About This Home
As of November 2021Wow! Is this the best stretch of street on the best street in town? The friendly, approachable neighbors may think so but may not say it. Well-located, well-constructed, and well-loved, like a strong, reliable, and confident friend, 1547 Josephine has your back. With aesthetic, structural and systems improvements too numerous to mention here -- including re-shingling and re-wiring the entire house -- all meticulously completed by the owner for his own enjoyment, comfort and safety since 2008, you will look forward to returning home from the best shopping and services Berkeley has to offer on North Shattuck, Monterey/Hopkins, and Solano Avenue. Don't miss this one!
