About This Home

As of September 2023

This architecturally rich Elmwood 6BR/3BA Arts & Crafts home offers generous space, indoor/outdoor living, full service ADU, and private backyard–all in one of Berkeley’s finest neighborhoods. Under the shade of a redwood, the traditional clapboard home welcomes you with a spacious porch and Dutch doors. Inside the 2937 SqFt home, casement windows span the walls, providing natural light throughout the expanded living room with a stately mantle and fireplace, and a gorgeous bonus nook for intimate conversation or music salon. The hardwood flooring continues to the dining room with built-in cabinets. The bright, renovated kitchen has high-end appliances and an adjoining laundry room offers storage. A sunny bedroom and full bath complete the first floor. Upstairs enjoys three large bedrooms, a smaller fourth bedroom (for guests, office, or play), a full bath, and a giant sleeping porch adjoins the front rooms. Outside the kitchen, an elegant deck overlooks a beautiful backyard with mature landscaping. To the side, a modern 396 SqFt ADU has a kitchenette, full bath, and dedicated laundry. The heart of Elmwood is steps away with restaurants, shops, culture & access to BART. Hike in the hills on the weekend, enjoy sought-after schools, and easily zip to Hwy 24 during the workweek.
