  • Just a few blocks to BART, Jefferson School, Monterey Market, Gioia Pizza, Cafe Roma, Berkeley Horticultural Nursery, the Westbrae Biergarten, Coffee Conscious, and Berkeley Natural Grocery
  • Classic architectural details galore, including hardwood floors, cast-iron tub, multi-pane windows, fireplace, and cozy built-in dining nook
  • Tranquil, park-like rear yard with chicken coop, fruit trees, raised beds, storage shed, and plenty of room to relax, garden and play
  • Large detached garage with wonderful old wood doors, lots of light, new foundationand 220 wiring — could be perfect for your fantasy ADU conversion or dream workshop
  • Excellent condition throughout, new paint with relatively new roof, central heat, certified sewer, seismic retrofit, and very low pest report ($190)
