About This Home
As of March 2026998 Virginia welcomes you with a beautifully landscaped front yard, and a few easy steps lead into an open living and dining space that feels inviting and comfortable. All three bedrooms and two updated tiled bathrooms are on one level, giving the home a practical layout that’s easy to live in. The primary bedroom opens directly to the deck and backyard.The remodeled kitchen connects seamlessly to the outdoors, with French doors opening to a spacious deck and backyard. A bonus room could work well as a family hangout, home office or both. The outdoor spaces are a true highlight. The front lawn and private backyard are ready to enjoy, featuring mature landscaping and fruit trees including lemon, plum, Asian pear, apple, and persimmon, along with a beautiful walnut tree that adds shade and character. Convenient access from 9th Street to the yard could also allow for a separate entrance if you choose to add an ADU in the future. Energy Score is 7. The location is another standout. ACME Bread is about a five-minute walk away, San Pablo Avenue offers a variety of local shops (Cafe Leila!), and 4th Street is nearby for cafés, restaurants, and shopping. North Berkeley BART is roughly a 13m stroll, and James Kenney Park is a block away by for tennis, playground time, or time outdoors.
