About This Home
As of January 2026The Berkeley Craftsman of your dreams; all of the 1920s charm, yet with updated, modern systems throughout. You'll be drawn to the thoughtfully designed, established garden; the front yard is lush yet low-maintenance, while tall pittosporum flanks the side of the home, filtering light delicately while providing privacy. Enter into the living room, featuring original trim and molding, hardwood floors and a centerpiece fireplace with gas insert. A formal dining room stuns – with a never-been-painted built-in, ample sunlight, and a two-way swinging kitchen door. And speaking of the kitchen; newly, tastefully remodeled, with cabinets in a soft gray-blue and effortless indoor/outdoor flow. Two sizable bedrooms sit on either side of the enlarged and remodeled bathroom, adorably redone with Fireclay tile, natural wood vanity and designer touches. The backyard offers perfect outdoor ease; hardscaped and private, with native plantings and fruit trees. And you will spill outside into Berkeley, effortlessly, as this home sits just blocks from coffee, eateries, parks, and BART. Centrally located, vintage perfection, yet delightfully turnkey.
