About This Home

As of October 2024

Privacy, contemporary finishes, an excellent location with mature gardens & a detached 1BD/1BA structure make this home in Poets Corner a special find. The inviting living rm has coved ceilings & a picture window frames a beautiful garden view. The sleek kitchen has concrete-coated counters, abundant storage & a light-filled breakfast nook. Two sunny bedrooms & bath are accessed by a hallway allowing for peaceful spaces. The bright laundry area w/ a clerestory window is a perfect work from home space accented by French doors that open to the backyard for quintessential California indoor-outdoor living. The detached structure in the rear yard opens a realm of possibilities: a bedroom, office space, rumpus room, or just a retreat. The use of reclaimed wood brings an organic feel to the space. The covered patio is a dreamy outdoor space & the lawn is perfect for play. Various textural elements are incorporated throughout the outdoors such as the steel planter, the brise soleil, the concrete bench & reclaimed wood highlights. Mins to shops, restaurants, UCB, and Berkeley Schools. With a walkscore.com of 88, a bikescore.com of 99, and easy access to bus lines (inc. the Transbay bus to SF) & BART, the amenities are never far.
