Description

This South Berkeley home sits on a large flat lot with a detached 2-car garage and plenty of off-street parking. Built in 1896 and renovated with a designer's touch in 2018, this property enjoys the benefits of newer systems and quality old-school construction. A formal entryway leads to a foyer with a dramatic staircase. A large formal living room with fireplace and bay windows leads to a formal dining room. The fully-remodeled chef's kitchen boasts an attached family room, half-bath and laundry room -- it truly is the heart of the home. Just off the family room sits a large, inviting deck and the flat grassy backyard just begging for parties and play. Upstairs, a gorgeous master suite, 3 more bedrooms and second full bath provide plenty of space for private living.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "we care for each neighborhood, and watch out for one another in this big community. From helping the elderly to supporting the youth it's one big fest of communities colliding together and having each other backs. Let's not forget the big parties and many fusion restaurants they have to offer. With its diversity of multicultural foods the possibilities are endless and of course let's not forget our classics to New York style pizza to traditional Mexican cuisine it's an abyss of nothing but delicious food coming your way "
