About This Home
As of August 2025IDEAL ELMWOOD LOCATION Although located in the highly desirable Elmwood District of Berkeley, when you are home, you won’t feel like you are in a City- this house feels very private. The primary living space features a great flow that is accented by freshly refinished hardwood floors through the living/ dining rooms which contain both a fireplace and bay window. The gracious kitchen has a Wolf range, vintage light fixtures, and access to the side yard. The previous owner, a photographer, usedof the garage to create a large office with French doors to the rear yard, plus a laundry closet and darkroom. Two blocks to Alta Bates medical facilities, three blocks to Whole Foods, four blocks to College Avenue, and the Elmwood shopping district- ditch the car. You are going to love it here.
