About This Home

As of January 2020

Delightful 3 bedroom 2 bath with garage in lovely North Berkeley setting. House surrounds back patio so natural light is abundant. Mature garden shows the love the previous owner held for it. There had been a gas firepit on the lower of the two outside decks that we chose to remove for sale. The Spring in bloom will undoubtably be gorgeous here! With 5 doors to the outside, one of them being french doors from the back bedroom, CA indoor / outdoor living is a must here! Front view bedroom has ensuite and wall of closet space. Features include: fireplace, abundant closets, attached garage, hardwood floors, built in cabinets, and windows everywhere. Kitchen and house refreshed by Nurture Source Design. Just up from The Circle makes it convenient to both Solano and Shattuck avenues and shops in Kensington.
