Prepare to fall in love with this versatile, Craftsman charmer in Southwest Berkeley. The cozy main house has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a flexible space in the finished attic, while the detached garden cottage in the backyard has another full bathroom, a loft, and adaptable space to be whatever your heart desires. Original details abound with a wood-shingled exterior, hardwood floors, built-ins, and redwood wainscoting in the living room. Functional upgrades include newer energy-efficient windows, a modern furnace, a newer roof, and partial foundation replacement. The remodeled, eat-in kitchen is flooded with natural light. High-end appliances, loads of storage, unique architectural features, and even a little reading nook make it the heart of the home. The private backyard has room to play, garden, or even raise your chickens. Out the door, you are just a block away from fields, courts, and play areas of San Pablo Park, and only a few more blocks to many shops, restaurants, and grocery shopping options.
