About This Home
Just two blocks from the north side of the UC Berkeley, this beautifully updated yet historic condo is 1 of 4 units in a charming 1924 building. It includes two garage parking spaces and a peek of the Golden Gate Bridge from the bedroom window! The home blends classic period details with modern upgrades. The kitchen features sleek Italian cabinets and high-end Miele appliances, including a built-in refrigerator, gas cooktop, conventional and microwave (both with speed settings), and a built-in Miele coffee/espresso station. The bathroom boasts a new tile floor, tub surround, and a stylish pedestal sink. Storage is plentiful with wall cabinets and a full linen closet. The main space includes a stunning, original built-in hutch and a walk-in storage closet. Off the kitchen, a small enclosed deck houses a shared washer and dryer plus an additional private storage closet. This well-maintained home had its foundation upgraded to meet earthquake standards and a new roof was installed in 2010. The back deck is set to be replaced soon, and the entire house will be repainted at that time. Enjoy the vibrancy of UC Berkeley, with its cultural attractions, entertainment, with Berkeley's renowned dining scene close by! **This property is a TIC which requires special financing considerations**
