What is great about this home is that it has nice hardwood floors, tall ceilings, Victorian built in features, a very large dining room AND a very large living room. Lots of common space. Also, there is a wonderful Strawberry Creek Park recently redone less than a block away. A 15 minute Bike Ride or Bus Ride to UC Berkeley.
And did I say that there is a hot-tub in the yard! The neighborhood is great because it is walking distance to two major streets that have lots of shops, pubs, restaurants, etc.
There is a small balcony for being outside observing and taking in the world.
There is a shared (small) yard that can house bikes, bbq, and outside places to chill. And did I also say Hot-tub? :)
