About This Home

As of November 2025

Incredible investment opportunity in a high-demand South Berkeley location! Situated at the vibrant corner of Shattuck & Essex, this well-maintained triplex is just blocks from Berkeley Bowl, Whole Foods, and a variety of restaurants, shops, and transit options. Each of the three 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom units features its own in-unit laundry hookups, private porch entry, and rare single-car garage with additional driveway parking – amenities that attract and retain long-term tenants. Two units are currently occupied with excellent tenants, while the third unit is Vacant and ready for move in or to be rented—ideal for owner occupancy or maximizing rental income. Designed for low-maintenance ownership with reliable returns, this property is a standout choice for both seasoned investors and first-time buyers. With strong rental demand and desirable features, expect full occupancy and consistent cash flow in one of Berkeley’s most walkable neighborhoods.
