    What's special

    Classic California craftsman bungalow in beautiful North Berkeley. Original details abound in this meticulously maintained 1916 home.  The open floor plan encompasses 3 bedrooms, 1 bath, remodeled kitchen, and a bright spacious living room that flows nicely into the dining area. The historic craftsman details remain with the built-ins, inlaid hardwood floors, cozy fireplace, and wainscoting in the generous sized dining room. Come home to a lovely landscaped front yard that boasts California native plants, and a backyard that is great for gardening, entertaining, and dining. A detached garage provides plenty of storage - or can be used as a zoom room! The open feel of the home is magnificent, and the location could not be more ideal: 3 blocks from North Berkeley Bart, Monterey Market, Shattuck Ave, Totland Playground, retail stores, cafes, and restaurants all in short distance. Additional upgrades include a newer roof, windows, heating, electrical, plumbing and seismic retrofit.

    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.
