About This Home
Originally the principal residence of a rare Italian Renaissance Revival building circa 1930, this distinguished Northside home has been thoughtfully preserved while offering all the comforts of modern living. One of Berkeley's most architecturally significant addresses, the building's classical entry, ornate facade, and period detailing speak to a craftsmanship rarely found today. Set on a tree-lined street just two blocks north of UC Berkeley, the location is as coveted as the architecture. With a Walk Score of 89, you're moments from the renowned Gourmet Ghetto home to Chez Panisse, the Cheese Board, and some of the finest dining in the Bay Area. Inside, approximately 1,391 square feet of living space unfolds across a generous and flexible floor plan. Nine-foot ceilings, beautifully refinished hardwood floors, and abundant natural light set the tone throughout. The newly remodeled kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring a stainless steel gas range, hood, dishwasher, side-by-side refrigerator, sleek countertops, ample cabinetry, and a charming garden window. The primary living space upstairs retains all of its original elegance crown molding, a ceiling medallion, a wood-burning fireplace, and a spacious walk-in closet. Four private entrances offer remarkable flexibility for how you live, work, and host. A separate lower-level suite with its own private entrance complete with bedroom, bathroom, closets, and additional storage is ideal for rental income, extended family, or guests. A home with this much character, history, and location simply doesn't come along often.
