About This Home
As of August 2020Sunny, private and superb stand alone condo in Central Berkeley! The entire home and grounds have been meticulously maintained with many thoughtful upgrades including, new foundation, remodeled kitchen and bath, upgraded systems, new windows, owned solar system, and the list goes on. The lower level includes a 2-car garage, separate storage room, mud/laundry room and a spacious home office with a separate entrance that looks out to the peaceful and lush rear garden. The upper level is drenched in sunshine, period charm and has open views in all directions. It includes a remodeled kitchen and dining area, a spacious living room, 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom. Part of a self managed 2-unit (site condo) HOA that has maintained a cooperative and easy-going relationship with zero HOA dues and pride of ownership throughout. Super convenient to downtown Berkeley and BART (Ashby or Downtown 0.9 miles).
