About This Home
As of May 2021Architectural-loving and eco-friendly buyers, Berkeley’s first straw bale construction home could be yours! Rated a perfect 10 on the Green Home Scale Rating, this 1-bedroom cottage with a bonus space has been featured in architecture books for its ingenious construction, smart use of square footage, and indoor-outdoor flow. Tucked away from the street and surrounded by lush dogwoods, birches, fig and plum trees and wisteria, it has a distinctly Mediterranean feel thanks to its rounded edges and natural hues. Features like radiant heated concrete floors, a skylight above the tub, and high-end finishes throughout give it a luxurious feel. Storage can be found throughout, including in the attic and outdoor sheds, and there is off-street parking for one. Walking distance to Berkeley Bowl, restaurants, bars, and schools, this secret garden hideaway begs for your permanent vacation.
