About This Home

As of July 2024

Adorable, completely detached condo lives like a single-family home with no HOA fees! Modernized by award-winning Berkeley-based green architects with savvy updates that honored its vintage character. Features verdant outdoor spaces and quintessential Berkeley charm. New landscaping and a wisteria-wrapped porch greet you. Innovative techniques created the unique front pillars, while reclaimed materials add to the green design. Gorgeous woodwork and built-ins make storage simplified, and operable skylights add stunning natural light. The living and dining areas seamlessly flow into the kitchen, which was featured in Good Green Kitchens and includes salvaged oak and terrazzo countertops. The sun-lit bathroom includes dreamy vintage character. Off the hall there's a convenient office nook, a bedroom with attic access, and ample storage. The master bedroom sits at the rear of the home with views of the lush surrounding garden. Wonderful back patio is the perfect spot to relax or garden.
