Property Description

Step into the timeless character of this beautifully updated West Berkeley home, where 1920s Art Deco flair meets modern, easy living. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom retreat blends vintage soul with thoughtful big ticket updates done, a home with personality, polish, & peace of mind already built in. From the moment you arrive, the cheerful yellow door sets the tone. The welcoming entryway is just begging for that statement piece of art you've been eyeing, with beaming natural light pouring in to greet you. Inside, original style inlay hardwood floors flow seamlessly throughout, freshly painted walls give every room a crisp, clean canvas, & a partial open concept layout strikes the perfect balance between connection and privacy. The living & dining areas flow effortlessly into one another, while a thoughtfully placed hallway tucks the bedrooms & bathrooms away for quiet retreat. The fully remodeled kitchen is a true culinary gem, equal parts function and personality. Updated cabinetry, stone countertops, & gleaming stainless steel appliances anchor the space, while a deep double wide farmhouse sink makes everyday cooking a pleasure. A playful decorative backsplash adds just the right pop of color & a nod to the home's 1920s spirit with a fresh, modern twist. Both bedrooms offer generous closet space & that same easy, light filled warmth. The primary suite is a private haven, complete with an updated ensuite bathroom. The second bathroom has been beautifully refreshed with patterned tile flooring, an updated tub surround, & an updated vanity. Beyond the beautiful finishes, this home has been lovingly maintained where it matters most. A new roof (2023), fully updated electrical with all knob and tube wiring replaced (2023), a new Bryant furnace and modern thermostat (2024), and a Takagi tankless on demand water heater (2020) mean the big ticket items are already done. Add in fresh interior & exterior paint & updated landscaping front and back, you are ready to move in with peace of mind. Outside, the expansive backyard is a true rarity, full of possibility for future expansion, lush gardens, or your own private oasis. A covered deck and stone patio set the stage for unforgettable gatherings. The long, gated driveway offers off street parking for multiple cars. Steps from Berkeley Bowl, Caffe Chiave, Anchalee Thai, San Pablo Park, & Strawberry Creek, with a bus stop up the block for easy access to UC Berkeley. Home Energy score 7 - almost there!
