Property description
Located in a highly desirable North Berkeley neighborhood known for its terrific restaurants and shops, this sweet two story home is just a few blocks from UC, The Cheeseboard (gourmet breads, cheeses&pizza), takeout at Gregoire’s, coffee at Vanne Bistro, Café Parisien’s fabulous French pastries, the original Peet’s Coffee (don’t miss the Alfred Peet museum), and of course, internationally known Chez Panisse. Walnut Square shops are just a short stroll down the street. Main Floor: kitchen (pantry, updated cabinetry with quartz countertop, new flooring), laundry area (washer & dryer included in sale); wood burning fireplace, living & formal dining rooms; Upper Level: two bedrooms & an elegant bath with skylight, refinished tub/shower, glass shower enclosure, new vanity and fixtures ... plus a bonus room, with windows on three sides. French doors in the front bedroom open onto a balcony overlooking the streetside scene below. Lusciously light and bright interior is delightfully refreshed with new paint and newly refinished wood floors. No garage, no driveway — sellers have lived here happily for over 33 years with on-street parking. Residential parking permits are available for residents. UC and BART nearby.
