Property description
What a beautiful place to live! Do you like to cook? Then have a great time creating your meals in the spacious modern kitchen, with its cherry cabinetry, granite counters, and gas cooking. Or do you like eating out? There's no better location for doing THAT, because Bonita between Cedar and Virginia is a short walk to the pleasures of what has been named Berkeley's "Gourmet Ghetto". While the six-unit building is a lovely building, you really have to come inside to appreciate how bright and wonderfully designed this home is. Everything was remodeled well. The bathroom has attractive mosaic accents, along with a spa tub and rain shower. The dining area is lovely, and like every space in the unit is sunny all day long. One parking space is assigned, and the laundry is inside the unit. Both the fireplace and the air conditioning unit are operated by remote control, and the fireplace has a stylish tumbled marble surround. You can walk to U.C. Berkeley from the unit, as well as to downtown Berkeley Bart station, and plenty of shops and cafes. Both the owners and their realtor bought units here for their graduate student daughters, and then held onto the units long after degrees were awarded, because it's such a perfect place to live and was such a good investment. Come see!
