This classic Victorian, originally built as a single family home, was expanded and converted to four units long ago, likely in the 1930s. The current owners bought the property in 2003 and embarked on an extensive renovation of the entire building, completed in 2005. They lived in the sunny two-story 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom unit, and rented out the other three 1-bedroom units. They have continued to meticulously maintain the property since then, though they no longer live there. All units are currently tenant-occupied.
The lot itself is extraordinary, with a southern exposure. Ideally located on a tree-lined street just a few blocks from BART and Berkeley Bowl (and a few more to UC Berkeley!), this property couldn't be more appealing!
2005 permitted renovation included replacement and thorough updating of:
-All systems (plumbing, electrical, heating)
-Roof/gutters
-Seismic retrofitting/foundation as necessary
-Dual-pane windows
-All kitchens/baths
-Exterior and interior painting
-Flooring
-Decking
-Landscaping
Building: 3329 Sq. Ft., per architect.
