Property Description

Welcome to this enchanting 1939 Spanish Mediterranean, the kind of home that quietly steals your heart at every turn. Nestled in one of Northwest Berkeley's most desirable neighborhoods, this 3BR, 2BA, 1560sf home comes with a detached studio office and feels like something from a storybook. Rich with original character, timeless charm, and perfectly situated to enjoy the very best of Berkeley, this is a home that feels both magical and effortlessly livable. The main level is the heart of the home, where the spacious living and dining rooms flow into a charming kitchen with a light-filled breakfast nook and seamless indoor-outdoor connection to the back deck and garden. The sun flows in from the large picture windows, calling you out to smell English roses, and pick the Gravenstein apples, kitsu mandarins, and more. Tucked behind the house is a beautifully modernized detached office studio, an inspiring work-from-home retreat featuring transom windows, wall-to-wall bookshelves, and whimsical wallpaper that adds just the right touch of personality. Upstairs from the main floor are two sunny bedrooms and a full bath, while the lower level features a large private bedroom suite with an adjoining bath, laundry room, and direct access to the backyard. Two storage sheds provide exceptional space for tools, hobbies, and outdoor gear, while the wide driveway offers convenient side-by-side parking for two cars. Beyond the front door, enjoy one of Berkeley's most coveted lifestyles. Stroll to Fourth Street for boutique shopping, cafés, restaurants, and weekend brunch. Spend afternoons exploring the waterfront at Shorebird Park, Adventure Playground, and César Chávez Park, where miles of walking and biking trails offer sweeping Bay views, unforgettable sunsets, kite flying, sailing, and one of the East Bay's favorite off-leash dog parks. Just minutes away, the Hopkins Street corridor offers neighborhood favorites, specialty markets, cafés, and Monterey Market, while nearby James Kenney and Cedar Rose Parks provide green space close to home. With quick access to Interstate 80, commuting throughout the East Bay and into beyond is remarkably convenient. Lovingly maintained and full of soul, this special home blends original architectural character with flexible living spaces, abundant storage, and an exceptional Berkeley lifestyle. HES: 7.
