Tucked on a friendly street, this isn’t your ordinary 1940s Berkeley home—it’s a whimsical mid-century reimagine. A simple front gable and covered porch keep things classic, but step inside and it’s all about the unexpected. The living space opens up with cathedral ceilings and exposed rafters, giving you that rustic lodge-meets-urban loft vibe. Beneath it all? Warm hardwood floors that tie the space together with an easy, timeless feel. Upstairs, the primary suite is your private retreat with a west facing balcony made for morning coffee, evening wine, and sneaky midday sun breaks. The backyard is a sweet little sanctuary: a gravel path looping through mature plantings in the shade of a Redwood. Rustic and playful, practical and stylish, cozy and airy—all at once. And the location? It hits the sweet spot! Wander to Acme Bread, and grab a dinner bottle at Kermit Lynch on the same block. Cedar Rose Park is your outdoor living room; the Ohlone Greenway is your easy bike path for errands, exercise, or leisure. Green thumbs will love Westbrae Nursery, and Berkeley Bowl West is a quick ride away. Just a ½ mile to North Berkeley BART and with a Walk Score® 84 and Bike Score® 97 leave the car in the garage, perhaps forever!
