    What's special

    Turn this lovely 1915 brown shingle into your dream home with some TLC. With the existing floor plan of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms upstairs -- and kitchen, living and dining rooms, laundry room with half bath, and a fourth bedroom downstairs -- there's plenty of room to create an updated design just the way you want it. Lovely never-painted wood trim, doors, built-ins and hardwood floors everywhere display the fine craftsmanship of the original builder. The kitchen leads out to a back deck with built-in bench and a flat yard with a 1-car garage that could be turned into a workspace or yoga studio. And the location can't be beat: it's on a tranquil street, just minutes away from El Cerrito Plaza with BART, Trader Joe's, Lucky, Bed, Bath & Beyond, See's Candies, Pier 1, Barnes & Noble, PetCo, banks and restaurants. Bring your tool belt and imagination as this home is ready to sparkle again! Features include: - 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms - 1,448 sq. ft. (aprx.) of living space on a 3,700 sq. ft. lot (aprx.) - Tons of original charm with hardwood floors, stained wood trim, doors, paneling and built-ins - Main floor bedroom would be a great office - Master bedroom suite with large bathroom and cedar-lined walk-in closet - Big closets in upstairs bedrooms - Fenced in flat back yard with deck - 1-car garage and long driveway - Great location on a quiet street near El Cerrito Plaza and BART - Views of the Berkeley hills
