    What's special

    Cozied up against one of the numerous creeks that runs through the East Bay, this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow is a delightful sanctuary to return to after a hard day's work. Beautiful raw wood details and trim, along with hardwood floors and a cozy built-in living room couch, all add to the warmth of this home. The bedrooms are split between two floors, and the eat-in kitchen has a shape that allows for your creative redesign. Right on the border of Albany and Berkeley, this location offers tons of popular amenities, including Whole Foods and Monterey Market, and access to lots of green space and parks. It's a short distance to two BART stations, and just 12 miles to downtown San Francisco. If condo living isn't your style, this is a wonderful alternative in a sweet neighborhood.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
