About This Home

As of July 2024

This one will pull at your heart strings. A beautifully curated cottage in a central location with a quiet, neighborly street just blocks from libraries, restaurants, theaters, BART, farmers market and UC Berkeley, too. Here you will find vintage charm and original details but added fun architectural details, upgraded systems, plenty of openable skylights, and a private backyard. And did you want a ton of closets and solar, too? Ok. Come see this one. Technically a "Site CONDO" (no dues!)- lives like a single family home. Architect-designed by Leger Wanaselja Green Dwellings Architects. Formal dining room with built-ins, skylights everywhere, and more closets than most larger homes. Two bedrooms plus an extra office nook with even more built-ins! Gas range, also has an induction connection ready. Street parking has always been easy-peasy. Special. Rare. Ready.
