Property description
Located on a quiet street just steps from the Monterey Market, this bright and sunny 3BR Northbrae Bungalow has been beautifully updated inside and out. The kitchen was custom designed by the owner architect, features a central island, top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry and opens to the garden. Beautifully updated and freshly tiled bathrooms, refinished oak floors and fresh paint throughout. Bonus space in the large finished garage which doubles as a family room or office. Basement workshop or storage and a long driveway for several cars! All surrounded by a French garden reminiscent of Provence and an edible vegetable mini-farm. This home is located in one of Berkeley's most coveted neighborhoods and in close proximity to the Hopkins shops, Gourmet Ghetto, BART and the great outdoors.
