About This Home

As of July 2020

This large and lovely duplex at 1708-1710 Woolsey Street shows the grace of yesteryear. You'll find large living rooms with tray ceilings, fireplaces, and picture rails. Each flat has a formal dining room and laundry. The lower flat provides 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, refinished hardwood floors and fresh designer paint. The upstairs flat is bathed in bright light and ready for your creative touches, with 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Art Deco light fixtures add even more elegance. Don't miss the fun, fruiting and flowering garden (including apple, pear, and lemon trees, roses and more) and koi pond! You can live in one flat and rent out the other. Award-winning Malcolm X Elementary is a few short blocks away, as is Ashby BART – with the Berkeley Bowl just a bit further. Given a WalkScore® of 93 and BikeScoreTM of 98, you may never need a car again.
