About This Home

As of October 2022

Welcome to your forever home! First time on the market in over 50 Years! Updated and move-in ready, this totally charming 3++, 2-bed home, located in Berkeley's Poets Corner neighborhood, has been lovely maintained and cared for over the years. The home was expanded with an upper-level addition in 1978, a new foundation in 1997, and refreshed again in 2022 for today's homeowner. This is a perfect blend of California bungalow with modern amenities. The top floor has a large primary suite, plus office (or nursery?) with updated ensuite bath; the room has large closets and flows out to a serene second-story deck. The lower level has the additional two bedrooms, one bath, plus an eat-in kitchen, dining room, living room and a sun porch that could double as a pantry, office or playroom. The yard has all new fencing, patio and several planter beds for that south-facing light!Easy access to N. Berk BART, 580/80, 4th Street shops, Strawberry Creek Park, shops and cafes along San Pablo, 1 mile to Cal. A must see!
