Information
Welcome to the sunny side of the street.
This superb 3 bed 2 bath home is in a prime North Berkeley location. Hardwood floors, dual pane windows, period details and flooded in southwest light. Living room has an attractive fireplace with gas insert and cozy reading nook below the bay windows. The dining area near the kitchen is spacious enough for a large table and there is useful built-in cabinet on the south side. 2 bedrooms and 1 updated bath are located off the hallway. In the rear of the home is the third bedroom which overlooks the yard and the 2nd updated bath - complete with a vaulted ceiling and skylight. Full laundry is also located in the back of the home. The handsome eat-in kitchen has new fridge and stove, dark stone countertop, farmhouse sink, cork floors and seamless entry onto the wood deck – creating a true “alfresco” experience. The private backyard is tremendous – coupled with mature plantings, veggie containers, an active fig tree, hot tub and the coolest wood fired oven you ever did see, some call this oven the “friend maker” – Detached garage complete electrical and workbench. The deep driveway has been recently updated with a new pebble stone parking pad and new landscaping in the front.
This location of 1514 Virginia is fantastic indeed, tree lined streets that are bike friendly, a stones throw to N. Berkeley BART, Monterey Market, Totland, Ohlone Park, WestBrae and the Gourmet Ghetto, the list goes on and on.
