About This Home

As of December 2024

Historic Craftsman Bungalow in Berkeley's favorite Northbrae neighborhood. The stately pillars and the formal entry way set the tone for the entire house. The carefully preserved woodwork and built-ins are magnificent and the large, multi-paned windows throughout the house are beautiful. The public spaces are generously proportioned with tall tray ceilings.carefully preserved wainscotting, built-ins, inlaid hardwood floors and period lighting fixtures. Two of the three bedrooms are spacious and bright. There are lots of closets in the house with storage in the basement and garage. The bathroom and kitchen were updated a while back, but the Wedgewood stove remains. There are two bonus rooms at the back of the house overlooking the deck and garden areas. The laundry room is conveniently located next to the kitchen. There is also a downstairs studio apartment completed with permits in 2003. It has a full kitchen, including washer and dryer. It has its own private entrance, overlooks the front yard and has separate meters. You could not ask for a better location in North Berkeley.
