About This Home

As of August 2021

One of Berkeley’s elegant Eastlake “Stick” Victorians, 2911 Newbury is a magical 3++BD/2BA gem with a formal dining room, modern baths, finished attic suite (with skylights!), finished basement and rec room, Ipe rear deck, and lushly landscaped front and rear yards. A welcoming blend of Victorian style and tasteful modern flourishes, the home features hardwood floors, textured wainscoting, ornate ceiling medallions, and intricately detailed hardware typical of the era, while updated kitchen and baths provide modern convenience. Situated in South Berkeley, the home is moments from UC Berkeley, downtown Berkeley, and a wide array of independent shops, restaurants, and cafes. Conveniently located for commuters, the home is near major transportation routes including AC Transit and the Ashby and Downtown BART stations.
