About This Home

As of December 2024

Own a sweet slice of paradise: a light-filled home with filtered views of the Bay in a sylvan spot in the Berkeley hills! Updates include modern foundation, retrofitting, new wiring, sparkling eat-in-kitchen, fresh paint inside/out. The living room has big west-facing windows, a fireplace, and fir floors. The original sleeping porch is bound to become a favorite retreat. There are 3 bedrooms with large closets, a full bath, and laundry on the lower level. Bonus: owner has preliminary plans by award-winning local architecture firm, Sogno Design, for an extensive remodel that would result in a 3br/2ba or 4br/2ba home + 2br/1ba ADU.* Enjoy proximity to UC Berkeley, Codornices, Rose Garden and Tilden Park. Shop and dine in the famed Gourmet district and other North Berkeley favorites just down the hill. *Buyer is advised to conduct their own investigation with appropriate professionals and verify with the city prior to proceeding with the purchase, and to rely solely on their own investigation.
