Berkeley charm shines at 1205 Curtis Street, a welcoming bungalow in one of Westbrae’s best locations. Featuring three bedrooms, one bath, and inviting outdoor spaces. Mature landscaping frames the front porch, while a broad bay window fills the living room with natural light. Beautiful wood floors, rich wood trim, and a distinctive tile fireplace create a warm, welcoming setting. The formal dining room is a standout. Glass-front built-ins and generous windows provide a memorable backdrop for everyday meals and gatherings. The bright kitchen features Carrara marble counters, stainless steel appliances, and a cheerful breakfast nook overlooking the backyard. Thoughtful details include custom Marvin triple-pane windows and ceiling-height built-in cabinetry; additionally, a separate laundry and utility area adds practical storage. The bright bathroom pairs classic black-and-white mosaic flooring with a subway-tiled tub and shower, a crisp white vanity, and a colorful blue mosaic niche. Outside, the fenced backyard combines a sunny patio, lawn, planting beds, and mature trees, with room to dine outdoors, garden, or simply unwind. A detached garage provides space for storage and hobbies; an additional outbuilding could serve as a separate office or studio space.* The long driveway goes all the way to the backyard and provides convenient off-street parking. Enjoy a convenient Berkeley location near Monterey Market and the specialty food shops along Hopkins and Gilman Street, with Solano Avenue’s restaurants, cafés, and independent shops also within easy reach. Nearby North Berkeley BART connects you to San Francisco and the wider Bay Area. Period character, inviting outdoor spaces, and neighborhood favorites at your fingertips come together in a home that feels distinctly Berkeley. Home Energy Score 4. Buyer to investigate.
