Property description
Condo in 1927 Elmwood showcase building. Exceptionally well-located in the heart of it all...just a half block to cafés, shops, and restaurants in one of the oldest commercial districts of Berkeley. Lovely old details combined with fresh modern updates are grounded with matchstick hardwood floors. Original glass door knobs, wood-pane windows, and a cute phone cubby call back time. A massive shared deck is right outside the back kitchen door...to facilitate BBQ, or a daily dose of vitamin D. Other conveniences include a gas fireplace, custom closets, and dishwasher. Laundry, water, and exterior maintenance are covered by monthly dues. Near buses, BART, U.C. campus, and trails.
