This beautiful duplex started life as a single story Victorian cottage. Sometime in the seventies and eighties, the property was lifted and the story below added to turn it into the building it is today. The lower unit is two bedrooms, with a separate dining room and living room. There is access from this unit to the ample yard with a large storage shed. There is off-street parking along the side of the building. Upstairs is another unit, consisting of a large kitchen/dining room combination, a large living room with a potbellied stove, and three good-sized bedrooms, one with attic access. The property is conveniently located near the corner of Shattuck and Ashby, so it is a brilliant location for commutes, public transit, BART, Berkeley Bowl and tons of other neighborhood amenities. The exterior was recently completely painted in charming period detail, and the front steps were completely replaced with permits in 2017. This is a great location for an owner-occupier who's interested in living in one unit and defraying the mortgage cost with the other unit. It is also a great investment property. You can't go wrong with this stunningly well-located and well-appointed property!
