About This Home
As of January 2023ELMWOOD. Fabulous Small house on a fabulous Big block. Architect designed in the 40s, built around a beautiful courtyard which sends light into every room. Level entry, all level living. This smaller home has the charm and style of a much larger one, truly spacious public rooms and both bedrooms large and light. The kitchen and bathrooms are charming and of their time, ready for updating or to move in and enjoy a well- functioning retro feel. A block up the street is the Claremont Swim and Tennis club, the Berkeley Tennis Club, Peets and Fournee. A few blocks in the other direction is every kind of shopping and fine dining. And the post office. And the Elmwood Theater. A few more blocks is UC Berkeley. Every kind of transportation is easily reachable.
