Property description
This delightful French cottage was reportedly built for an Opera singer in the 1920's. Throughout the house you will find stained glass windows and built-ins, high ceilings, and beautiful hardwood floors. The property has 2 sunny bedrooms and 2 baths, plus a bonus space perfect for a study or workshop. The sweet period style breakfast room has period wall paper and a bank of windows which offers a lovely outlook. The very private petite Mediterranean garden is resplendent with fruit trees and flowers. The attached undersized garage has interior access to the main house. This A + location, between College and Claremont Avenues, offers easy access to the myriad of Elmwood's eclectic shops and restaurants, as well as proximity to UC Berkeley, the Claremont Hotel, and BART.
