About This Home

As of July 2020

Cute! Cute! Cute! This Berkeley bungalow in lovely Poet's Corner has it all - main house, deck, hot tub, roof deck and grassy yard with kid gym - plus studio cottage not included in the bed/bath count. Totally turn-key, this home has updated lovingly with new systems, new roof, seismic retrofit, new bathrooms and new kitchen. The en-suite is a quiet sanctuary away from the main living space, and offers a large bedroom with walk-in closet and updated bath. This home has been a place for gathering and entertaining; the studio cottage allowed for various guests to visit from all over the world. The zen garden outside the studio is separated by a louvered slat fence that can be closed for privacy. Easy access to BART, the Ohlone Greenway, Strawberry Creek park (yoga, cafe, pasta shop, basketball, tennis and park), and the West Campus Pool! Truly a special place to call home and one of Berkeley's best neighborhoods.
