INFORMATION
Big, versatile, and well cared for Berkeley compound. This handsome and fully vacant “triplex” consists of two houses on one lot. The main house has all new dual pane windows on both levels. Upper level boasts recently refinished hardwood floors throughout, separate living room and dining room + laundry. Two well sized bedrooms with natural southern light exposure. Off the hallway is a full bath with a shower over tub. New redwood deck off the kitchen faces west and sits perched high enough to get a peek-a boo view of San Francisco.
On the lower level is a creative person’s dream - 15 foot ceilings throughout with attractive exposed beam construction and ornate wood detailing. There is a unique blend of useful utility and bohemian design sensibility; producing a genuine warm and inviting feeling. Bedroom flows out onto a huge living room and office. Massive dining room (think more creative space) and kitchen area are located in the rear of the main home. Full bath with and stackable washer and dryer. Interior access to the sizeable garage is off the kitchen on this lower level.
The rear detached structure holds its own charm. A quant living room, the kitchen looks out onto a private deck. Off the rear bedroom is the full bath. This is an easy house to live with the doors wide open – encouraging indoor/outdoor connection.
The two separate structures live like a private complex where there is a hot tub, new plantings and raised garden beds. This section of Berkeley is a gem. Close by to so many convenient spots such as, Berkeley Bowl West, San Pablo Park, 900 Grayson, Standard Fare, Berkeley Aquatic Park and Pacific-E bikes to name a few local spots. 91 Walkscore, 99 Bikescore
