What is a duplex, really? It’s a single-family home with another home attached! Think of it as the ultimate SFR + ADU lifestyle—except your “ADU” is another full-size 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence. Welcome to 1818 Milvia, where flexibility meets location in the heart of North Berkeley. Live comfortably in one beautifully renovated 3BR/2BA residence while the second can help offset your mortgage, accommodate extended family, provide space for adult children or parents, or create additional income. Each residence offers an open-concept floor plan with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a primary bedroom with ensuite bath. Both have been extensively remodeled with new kitchens, cabinetry, countertops and appliances; updated bathrooms; new flooring, windows, doors and paint; in-unit washer/dryer hookups; and energy-efficient mini-split heating and A/C. Major improvements include new water, gas and DWV plumbing, new electrical wiring and subpanels, a tankless water heater, and separately metered gas and electricity. A new driveway provides two off-street parking spaces at the rear. Best of all, you're just blocks from UC Berkeley and within easy walking distance of Downtown Berkeley, BART, restaurants, cafés and shopping. Why settle for a traditional single-family home when you can have your home plus an entire second residence? Whether it's income, multigenerational living or simply flexibility for the future, 1818 Milvia gives an owner-occupant options that most homes simply can't offer.
