Turn-key Charm, Convenience, and Income Potential Picture yourself coming home to a sunny 3 bedroom, 2 bath Craftsman bungalow + ADU with flower and veggie gardens. Ideally located in the heart of Berkeley, this charming property has been meticulously renovated from foundation to roof, and nearly everything in between. New electrical, new plumbing, new designer light fixtures, new gourmet appliances and stunning refinished hardwood floors. It features two legal homes! Each home has its own, distinct address. The rear home is an elegantly finished ADU, just ready for leasing or extended family members! There is also a detached garage offering further wonderful opportunities. The light-filled main house maintains classic Craftsman allure with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The ADU cottage has a private back patio framed by colorful side gardens. This multi-purpose property is ideally suited for an owner to welcome rental income to help offset mortgage costs or for a multi-generational compound! If you rented both homes out, it could be a great income-generating investment. Situated just minutes from Berkeley Bowl, Shotgun Players Theater; parks, schools, restaurants, and BART, this lovingly updated home is a rare opportunity to dive into Berkeley life. www.1934wardst.com
