This two-bedroom, one-bathroom house has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its 1920's Craftsman charm. The home is set back from the street, offering a sense of privacy and seclusion. The living room features wainscotting and picture molding, complemented by wood flooring that extends into the front bedroom. The kitchen has been updated with engineered oak flooring, newer cabinets with original built in cabinets, granite counter, newer appliances, and a breakfast room. The back bedroom showcases newly installed wood-style linoleum and double paned window. A dedicated laundry room provides convenience. The property also boasts a nice small yard with a prolific lemon tree, adding to the property's character and appeal. Located on Ward Steet's Victorian Row, it is near Berkeley Bowl, great restaurants, Downtown Berkeley, UCB, BART and transportation routes.
