About This Home

As of June 2026

Ideally located in the heart of Central Berkeley, this 1920s bungalow offers classic charm with everyday convenience.

This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home features a light-filled, functional layout with easy flow between the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The primary bedroom includes an ensuite bathroom with a bathtub. A formal dining room adds flexibility for everyday living or entertaining. The kitchen and hallway bathroom have been updated, while original built-ins and trim details maintain the home’s character. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living space. Key upgrades include a seismically retrofitted foundation and a newer roof.
