About This Home

As of August 2023

Ideally located in a fabulous North Berkeley neighborhood, close to shops, restaurants, transit and parks, stands this beautiful Brown Shingle Craftsman. This 4+ BD, 2.5 BA diamond-in-the-rough has it all: a bright & airy feel with classic detailing and period fixtures; hardwood floors throughout; & an abundance of indoor and outdoor space. On the entry level, this grand home is accented with coved ceilings and a floorplan for perfect ease of use. The formal entry seamlessly transitions the living room, complete with a gorgeous bank of windows flooding the room with light, into the regal dining room which includes a stately fireplace and gracefully opens to the spacious, eat-in cook’s kitchen with adjoining laundry-room/half-bath. On the upper level are four spacious bedrooms, and two full bathrooms with City & Bay views. Effortlessly flowing from the dining room is a new deck, perfect for entertaining al fresco or relaxing in sanctuary—a space designed for maximum enjoyment of the California indoor/outdoor lifestyle. This storied charmer is an incredible opportunity and ready to be restored to its original Grandeur.
