About this House

A Carleton Classic. Through a rose-draped arbor sits a bungalow of real architectural character. Tapered pilasters flank a picture window and meet at the roofline peak; a broad brick porch with fine Craftsman details welcomes you in. Inside, the foyer opens to a light-filled living room anchored by a fireplace with a raw-edge granite surround that reads like art. The gracious formal dining room flows into a cook's kitchen with a high-end Fisher & Paykel range and room for a friend to pull up a stool. Two bedrooms and a generously-sized full bath (with a spot perhaps for another partial bath) make up the private wing, with an enclosed porch turned home office opening to a deck and the back garden. The oversized lot is presided over by a majestic sequoia, with Japanese maple, magnolia, roses, and a striking protea among the mature plantings. Large detached garage (a great workshop, or a spot for a future ADU?). Updated electric, solar, copper plumbing, dual-pane windows, and a newer roof. Berkeley Bowl, great coffee, and West Berkeley's thriving food and arts scene are all nearby, with a bike boulevard at the corner, San Pablo Park blocks away, and BART just over a mile. Home energy score 7.

    "west berkeley is an appealing neighborhood -- largely walkable, with character, lots of amenities nearby. biggest knocks are the cool breeze off the bay, bart isn't nearby and you can't easily access everyday items like milk or toilet paper."

    "The walks one can take through the Berkeley Hills keeps one focused on beauty and inner peace because you are surrounded by the natural world of redwoods, live oak trees hundreds of years old, soaring birds, extraordinary light at sunset, and did I say beauty. Truly amazing weather as well. Best place in country to live well if you can afford it"

    "This is a diverse neighborhood, w/families, singles, and older people. It is close to public transportation, a large park (dogs, tennis, ball games, rec center) and an excellent full-service market. Public school 3 blocks away. Lots of community involvement, block parties, etc. Close to a main thoroughfare yet actual street traffic is light."
