About This Home

As of June 2021

North Berkeley gem! Charming one-story Craftsman cottage with a modern vibe, expansion potential and a GORGEOUS yard, in a stellar location (Walk Score® 90, Bike Score® 98) near BART, UC Berkeley, the North Shattuck “Gourmet” area, Trader Joe’s, Ohlone Park, Totland, the Downtown Arts District & much more! Well-designed, efficient floorplan, hardwood and cork flooring, tons of natural light from the many windows and multiple skylights! Sleek updated kitchen with quartz countertops opens to a dining area and additional hang-out space, both surrounded by bookcases. The yard is an incredible oasis with beautiful mature oak trees (the sellers had a rope swing!), lush landscaping, a barbeque with a dedicated gas line, a hammock and a bonus detached office (which is not included in the listed square footage). With a big level lot, an upgraded foundation (prior owners planned to expand up), and an incredible North Berkeley location, it’s the perfect canvas on which to paint future dreams!
