About This Home

As of July 2025

Welcome to 765 Neilson St, a sunny and spacious 4BD/2BA bungalow + a detached studio + 1/2 bath in Berkeley’s beloved Thousand Oaks neighborhood. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street just 1.5 blocks from Solano Avenue shops and cafes, this home offers plenty of space for gathering, working, or relaxing. The generous living room features a gas fireplace and sunlit window seat. The front bedroom makes a perfect nursery or office, while the 3 additional bedrooms all offer great light and ample closets. The side-by-side bathrooms have been tastefully refreshed. But the heart of the home is the open kitchen, dining, and family room—ideal for game nights, dinner parties, or cozy movie time. French doors lead to a Mediterranean-style patio, perfect for morning coffee or dining al fresco. Across the patio is the detached studio, ideal for guests, art, workouts, or working from home. Fresh interior paint, refinished hardwood floors and natural light throughout create an easy flow. With dual-paned windows, a high-efficiency furnace, and drought-tolerant landscaping, this home is both stylish and practical. Walk Score of 94—moments from Solano Ave, Memorial Park, & Colusa Circle's Sunday Farmers Market. Easy commuter access to Marin Ave, N Berkeley BART, Transbay bus lines and Ohlone Greenway.
