About This Home

As of February 2025

Plenty of room, loads of charm, great condition, and central location! Enjoy a large two-story four bedroom, two bathroom home on the upper levels (1,876sq ft). On the first floor is a spacious two bedroom and one bathroom unit (1,111sq ft). The classic and gracious architecture of the Edwardian era has been renovated in a way that typifies Berkeley's character: updates that feel custom, handcrafted, reclaimed, and unique, yet in keeping with vintage charm. Add to that, you'll find the modern comforts of major structural improvements such as foundation replacement (2017), new roof (2020), premium dual pane windows (2022), copper plumbing, and modern electrical. Each unit enjoys a private deck right off the back that also leads to a shared patio at the garden level that allows for more entertaining space. Both units have in-unit laundry, and are separately metered for electric and gas. The configuration lends itself to either multigenerational living or, if owner-occupied, an investment that benefits from "Golden Duplex" status*. A rebuilt two-car garage provides parking or storage, and has its entry on the less-traveled Ward Street around the corner. Ideally located just blocks away from Berkeley Bowl and Ashby BART, close to parks, schools, downtown, and UCB.
