Urban oasis with a magical garden in the heart of South Berkeley and the border of Elmwood. This 2 bedroom, 1 bath home has old-world sophisticated charm with beautiful wood floors, traditional grooved plate sills, box beam ceilings, dining pocket doors, kitchen swing door with window, and picture hanging molding all with original style and hardware. So much original charm is still intact. In addition to the charm, there are many updates: A well-appointed kitchen, with French doors to the yard, updated counters and cabinets with ample storage, and high-end appliances. The bedrooms are large and light filled. The bathroom is also updated, as well as most of the windows in the house, to current style. The large secluded garden boasts country life ideas: A chicken pen is ready for you, a lovely redwood tree teaming with the sound of local birds; occasionally an owl will nest. The large attic may offer ideas to increase living space in the future.* Especially desired is access to local fare, restaurants, and the library, all just a short distance away in downtown Berkeley or the heart of Elmwood. Local parks such as Willard Park and Bushrod Park summon sport and enjoyment. The university is close, as well as BART, and the iconic Berkeley Bowl. Everybody's dream come true!

*Buyer is advised to conduct their own investigation with appropriate professionals and verify with the city prior to proceeding with the purchase, and to rely solely on their own investigation.

Neighborhood

∎

With easy access to public transportation and Interstate 80, and many amenities in close proximity, Central Berkeley and Baja Elmwood are one of the city’s most convenient and desired neighborhoods.

Central Berkeley residents are a short stroll away from the Ashby and University Berkeley BART station, convenient for those who work in San Francisco. Shattuck Avenue and College Ave are the neighborhoods' main east-to-west thoroughfares, which lead directly to numerous restaurants -- serving all types of cuisine -- as well as other businesses, parks and events.

Homes in the neighborhood sit on quiet, tree-lined street and range from modest bungalows and cottages to larger, larger-built properties. THis is the best of urban living with neighborhood connection.
