About This Home

As of September 2021

A delightful Victorian home in the very heart of Berkeley, 2019 Hearst Avenue offers an unexpected sanctuary in the throes of a bustling city center. The property’s verdant backyard distinguishes it from other dwellings, and provides a park-like setting for gardening, entertaining or cozy evenings around a fire pit. This genteel, well-maintained home features sweeping 12’ ceilings, tall windows, period lighting fixtures, and gorgeous golden oak hardwood floors dating back to the home’s original 1930’s construction. Downstairs, an additional two-bedroom, one-bathroom non-conforming unit provides additional living space for friends, family or an au pair*. Behind this stately home sits a stand alone two-story, one-bedroom Accessory Dwelling Unit, (ADU), and a converted outbuilding reimagined as a private home office. *Neither seller nor agent represent that this unit has been done with permits.
