About This Home
As of April 2025Experience the warmth of this quintessential Craftsman Brown Shingle, thoughtfully updated while preserving its classic appeal. Sunlight floods the living room, highlighting a rebuilt fireplace and timeless built-ins that speak to the home’s history. Adjacent lies a formal dining room trimmed with handsome wainscoting, offering an inviting backdrop for memorable gatherings. The refreshed eat-in kitchen is bright and spacious, perfect for morning coffee or easy weeknight meals, and just steps away a half bath and separate laundry room add convenience. Step out to the deep backyard, where a driveway extends beside a wide-open space brimming with potential—envision a future garden, play area, an ADU, or expansion.* Upstairs, the generously sized bedroom features ample closets, along with a versatile plus room that could become your study or nursery.** Important upgrades such as seismic retrofitting, an updated electrical panel, and a modern furnace offer peace of mind. Nestled in Berkeley’s Poet’s Corner, with its tree-lined streets and welcoming sense of community, enjoy quick access to BART, restaurants, and local shops that showcase the best of the East Bay. Everything you need is just moments away! **Bedroom count may differ from published public record count.
