Property description
PRIME ELMWOOD HISTORIC CRAFTSMAN 1 BLOCK FROM COLLEGE AVE // If you live in Elmwood, it has to be a Leola Hall. Rarely available & specific to only a few blocks in this vibrant neighborhood, this prominent builder designed her homes as warm gathering places. After the earthquake from 1906-1912, only a handful of homes were built by this artist, feminist, entrepreneur & activist, and her homes defined what became Berkeley’s Craftsman style. With her signature grand staircase & essential clinker brick fireplace, 2808 Ashby does not disappoint. The architecture, crown molding, balustrade & box beam ceilings play in perfect harmony w/ the whimsy of the colorful kitchen w/ new cabinets, marble counters, Thermador range, bold wallpaper & modern lighting. The LR is a grand oversized space w/ a wall full of windows & flows to the formal DR. Upstairs are 4 BR; downstairs is a bonus room & ample storage. The garden has grassy play area, brick patio & veggie bed. Close to it all! Walk Score: 91
