Reimagined 1898 Victorian rebuilt with modern flair and eclectic style. The stunning second-floor 3 bed, 2/1 bath unit is newly remodeled from floor to ceiling, with an added bathroom, updated electrical and panel, refinished hardwood floors, a modern kitchen, and redesigned laundry and half-bath for greater functionality.
Purchased as a Golden Duplex, the homes first floor was partly transformed into a 1-bed, 1-bath cottage by a local writer and her familya whimsical retreat filled with creativity and joy. Discover a sandy beach with fish and frogs, a forest of lights, handcrafted nature-inspired mosaics, and unique kitchen tiles reminiscent of a Renaissance painting. Antique-fair finds include doors, tiles, a sink, and clawfoot tub. Original redwood wall planking now forms floors evoking a bygone seaside boardwalk.
The remaining first-floor space offers possibilities: retain it as storage or explore creating another living unit. A possible third postal address is unverified. Buyers should confirm with the City of Berkeley whether the approximately 800 sq. ft. can become a 1-bed, 1-bath unit or be incorporated into a 2-bed, 1-bath layout.
